TOP CURAÇAO BEACHES TO VISIT IN 2019

For me, a vacation must include a beach. It is a simple as that. There is relaxing about the sea breeze massaging my body, the sand squeezing between my toes, and the sun covering my body. I just love being on the beach.

So, I must admit that my recent visit to Curaçao was visiting paradise. If you know anything about Curaçao, you must know that the Dutch island has some of the best beaches in the Caribbean. The island gave me and some of my close friends an experience of a lifetime.

Also known as Playa Grandi, Playa Piscado is one of the best beaches to head to if you love marine animals.

Aside from the bird watching and turtle spotting, I enjoyed some snorkeling. As such, if you want to enjoy some marine animals without going deep into the ocean...
