This charming beach is a hidden gem, devoid of excessive commercialization that can detract from the natural beauty of other beaches. It is an ideal spot for snorkeling, particularly on the right side where a plethora of colorful fish can be spotted swimming amongst the coral. Additionally, lucky visitors may even catch a glimpse of a graceful turtle gracefully gliding through the crystal-clear waters.

This beach is a true gem! For just $15, you can enjoy the comfort of two chairs and an umbrella for the entire day. While the snorkeling may not meet the expectations of experienced snorkelers, the coral and fish are still healthy and abundant. You can explore both sides of the cliffs for an unforgettable snorkeling experience. The left side boasts slightly more coral, but the visibility is excellent on both sides. Without a doubt, this was the highlight of our visit to Curacao. The natural beauty of this beach is simply breathtaking.

I absolutely adored this beach on the island - it's definitely one of my top picks. Although there weren't many amenities available, I had a fantastic time there. The snorkeling experience was particularly noteworthy and left me feeling exhilarated.

This charming beach offers the option to rent sunbeds and umbrellas, providing a comfortable and relaxing experience. While the nearby Grote Knip boasts breathtaking water, it can be quite crowded. Opting for the more private and serene Kleine Knip was a wise decision. The sand is soft and inviting, and the surrounding cliffs offer ample opportunities for snorkeling and observing marine life such as fish and turtles. However, the true highlight of our visit were the two friendly pigs who call this beach their home.

Out of all the beaches in Curacao, this one holds a special place in my heart. It may not offer the luxuries of bathrooms, beach massages, and snacks, but if you're seeking a pure and natural experience, this is the place to be. The sand is soft, the sun is warm, and the ocean is breathtakingly beautiful. The snorkeling is also quite interesting, making it a great spot for underwater exploration. There's plenty of parking available and the beach is easily accessible. If you do desire some comfort, you can rent beach chairs and umbrellas for a reasonable price, and even take them with you to other beaches like Grote Knip. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful and relaxing, and the scenery is simply stunning.
