Curaçao Sightseeing

Curaçao Museum
Pop into Curaçao Museum and browse a fascinating collection of antiques and art. Carefully restored in 1946-1948, the museum also contains artefacts from the indigenous Caiquetio tribes, with a pretty garden pavilion used to host regular moonlit musical extravaganzas. 

Willemstad Seaquarium
Top up your marine knowledge and gaze at large aquariums filled with colourful fish; as well as 400 species of fish, crab, anemone, sponge and coral, the Seaquarium features larger creatures such as sea-lions and dolphins

Schottegat
Historic Willemstad is edged by the island's natural harbour, Schottegat, where Curaçao's famous floating market takes place. Observe dozens of colourful barges full of Venezuelan wares and agricultural produce with plenty of opportunity to haggle and barter for a deal. 

Impressive bridges
Watch the Queen Emma Bridge part to allow the stream of large ships pass by, and head over the Queen Juliana Bridge - at 200ft (60.5 metres) above the water it is the highest bridge in the Caribbean - for stupendous views.

Jewish Cultural Historical Museum
Visit the Mikvé Israel Emanuel Synagogue and learn more about the sacred building's history at the nearby Jewish Cultural Historical Museum.

Museum Kura Hulanda
This fascinating anthropological museum (www.kurahulanda.com/museum) includes an exhibition on the history of the slave trade in the Americas.
