How do you get around Curaçao?

From the airport to your hotel, you can take your booked transfer, the hotel transfer or an authorized taxi. To explore the island, add a rental car.

From the airport to your hotel

Transfer time depends on the area where you're staying; check with your hotel or your transfer provider.

Authorized taxis

Taxis have standard government-regulated fares and don't use meters; ask the fare before getting in.

Hotel transfers

The transfer to and from the airport may be included in your booking; confirm it when you book your stay.

Rental car

There are car rental agencies inside the airport terminal. Below we tell you when it makes sense.

Do you need to rent a car in Curaçao?

It's not required, but it helps. If you're staying in Willemstad and going to a few beaches, you can get around by taxi. If you want to explore the west coast beaches and the national parks, a car gives you more freedom.

Without a car

It makes sense if you're staying in Willemstad and will spend most days nearby. Use authorized taxis or your hotel transfer.

With a car

It makes sense if you want to explore Bandabou, Christoffel National Park and Shete Boka. Most of Curaçao is 30 to 45 minutes away by car, no matter where you start; it can vary at rush hour.

When driving

In Curaçao you drive on the right and, at intersections and roundabouts, traffic coming from the right has the right of way. You need a valid driver's license; the minimum age and requirements are set by each agency.

What practical tips should you know before traveling to Curaçao?

Protect the reef, respect the turtles and head up early in the national parks.

Language

The official languages are Papiamentu, Dutch and English. Spanish is also spoken.

Reef and marine life

Don't touch or step on the coral, don't collect shells or marine life, and use reef-safe sunscreen.

Turtles

Watch them from a distance, without touching or feeding them.

Hiking

In Christoffel National Park, start early: climbing the mountain is not allowed after 10 a.m.

Sargassum

Curaçao is outside the main sargassum belt, so it's rarely a problem on its beaches.

What can you do in Curaçao in a week?
