Jetski Tour and Snorkeling
Captain your own Sea-Doo for a half-day of sightseeing, swimming and snorkeling over a shipwreck.
After being picked up at the pier, you will be transferred to the boat shop approximately 30 minutes away. Here you will have a briefing and safety orientation before being assigned to your craft.
Climb aboard your Sea-Doo GTI jet ski designed for two guests. You will pilot your own watercraft while you enjoy the magnificent views of Curacao’s mangroves and small islands. See one of the Dutch Queen’s vacation homes, and cruise the coastal area with its coves, bays, and beaches.
For approximately 45 minutes, you will explore and play in the beautiful pristine waters off the southern coast of Curacao. When you reach the lagoon, you will see luxurious homes, yachts, and the famous Tafelberg (Table Mountain). Here, you will have a beach break for a refreshing swim.
You will also snorkel one of Curacao’s best snorkeling sites for about 45 minutes: a tugboat shipwreck, located on the protected southeast side of Caracas Bay. The tugboat, which sank 25 years ago, is now home to a wide array of marine life. It is common to see colorful coral, morays, scorpionfish, lobsters, and schools of tropical fish.
On our way back, enjoy the picturesque view of an old manorial estate and Fort Beekenburg, a well-preserved fort that was originally built in 1703 to protect the inner bay.

Curacao, a gem in the Caribbean Sea, offers a captivating blend of Dutch colonial charm and vibrant Caribbean culture. Its capital, Willemstad, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its colorful 17th-century architecture and historic waterfront. The city's iconic Handelskade, lined with pastel-hued buildings, presents a picturesque setting for leisurely strolls and waterfront dining. Don't miss the floating Queen Emma Bridge, which connects Willemstad’s Punda and Otrobanda districts and opens to allow ships to pass. Beyond the historical allure, Curacao is famed for its stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters. The island boasts some of the Caribbean’s most beautiful beaches, including Playa Kenepa Grandi and Playa Cas Abao. These idyllic spots offer perfect settings for snorkeling, diving, and basking in the sun. The island’s marine life is a spectacle in itself, with colorful coral reefs and a diverse array of fish easily accessible from the shore. Curacao's cultural richness is also reflected in its cuisine, which combines influences from Dutch, Spanish, and African traditions. The island’s culinary scene is a treat for the senses, with local specialties such as keshi yena (stuffed cheese) and stoba (beef stew) featured in many of its restaurants. Additionally, Curacao is known for its vibrant festivals and music, including the lively Carnival celebrations and various local music events throughout the year. A fun fact about Curacao is that it is home to the famous Curacao liqueur, which is made from the dried peel of the laraha orange, native to the island. For the best experience, visit between January and April when the weather is pleasantly warm and dry, perfect for exploring and enjoying the island’s many offerings. |
