6 Art Galleries in Curacao That You Shouldn't Miss
Serious divers have long flocked to Curacao. Whether you’re looking for a challenging wall dive or a shallow snorkeling spot, you’ll find it here. Beaches, of course, are another big draw. With sugar-fine sand and calm waters, they’re perfect for kids. And make sure to explore Willemstad, Curacao’s capital city. Its charming pastel buildings and equally colorful history earned it recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage City.

Learn about the invasive Lionfish! Watch people make amazing jewelry from Lionfish Bring home awesome souvenirs, handmade Small but Educational * Fun * Unique
Reviewed By Tomoonifly - Rancho Murieta, United States
My wife and I have been spearing the invasive lionfish throughout the Caribbean and US for several years. Lionfish are doing incredible damage to the marine ecosystem by gorging on small reef fish, and it’s a never ending battle to control their numbers. So I was excited to meet Lisette at Lionfish Caribbean, who according to all the locals, has done more to control lionfish numbers than anyone on the island. So maybe her small shop is more of an educational center than a museum, however it’s well worth a visit and her jewelry, which you can see being made, is very tasteful.
