 Cactus by kyoub Close to a dozen wild species of cactus make their home in Curaçao. You will notice several throughout the countryside. There are four basic types, ranging from the tall, stately pillar cactus (the most common are the candelabra shaped kadushi and the straight datu) that can tower up to 10 meters into the air, to the long winding ones that snake the ground; from the nopal or so-called "leaf cacti" with their broad, flat branches (tuna and infrou) to the squat ball cactus the milon di seru. (literally, "melon of the hills") that resembles a very thorny melon. Leave a Comment

 St. Marthabaai by bijo69 Note that most shops and even quite some restaurants are closed on Sundays. Willemstad is nearly deserted and the beaches are packed. Exceptions are made when cruiseships are in town. Leave a Comment

Look on your bill or at the prices. some things are in dollars but others are in Naf. one dollar is about 1,75 Naf. at hotels you get a very bad rate. best is use your Visa, or get your money out of a ATM machine or go to a bank. Leave a Comment

Coral reef Eco Tips: 1) Follow the sandy areas when swimming across the shallow part of a reef. It is easy to accidentally crush corals and disturb other animals 2) Don't touch corals or hang of, rest on, or kick them. Corals are living animals and are damaged even by gentle handling. 3) Avoid kicking up the sand. It spoils the visibility for others and damages corals and other reef animals when it settles. 4) Don't spearfish. It is prohibited 5) Be careful in underwater caverns and caves. Don't spend to long in there and avoid crowding; bubbles collect on the roof and reef animals can "drown" in air. 6) Never anchor on corals. Tie up to a mooring buoy or jetty, or anchor carefully in sand or rubble patches Leave a Comment

If you are going to stay on Curacao, make sure you research where your hotel is in relation to the oil refineries. The stench was awful and it was not very pretty. Leave a Comment
