What to pack
Bring beach shoes if you have them.
The beaches on Curacao are beautiful, but not always kind to the feet. Don't forget to bring your beach shoes. If you don't have or forgot them, don't despair. Visit the Building Depot's children's section or the Luna Park for a pair.
What to pack
Don't forget sun protection!
The sun is beautiful in the Caribbean sky, but especially in Curacao it can also be quite punishing. Always protect your skin and stay hydrated!
