Quizfrage

How do I find the beach where I can swim with turtles?

Antwort

You drive to the west of Curacao to Westpunt. After a short distance into village, you will see the beginning of a long bay on your left. Continue along the road until you reach the All West Apartments, which are painted in yellow. Behind it is a large parking lot where you can leave your car. On the right-hand side, go down the stairs to Playa Grandi.

If you have driven past, you’ve got a second chance: turn sharp left in the downhill S-bend, before the octopus tree. This will take you to the smaller parking lot at ground level, which is located directly in front of Playa Piskadó.

Playa Piskadó is the name given to the part of Playa Grandi where the fishermen bring in their catches. There are always lots of turtles in the water.

When you reach the octopus tree at the latest, turn sharp left to the turtle beach

  • Quiz Question

    What is a Maribomba?

    Answer

    The yellow paper wasp (Polistes versicolor), which is common on Curacao, has the funny-sounding name Maribomba in the local language Papiamentu.

    This name has its origins in the Bantu language Kimbundu, in which wasp means “marimbondo”. Once again, the connection between Curacao’s slavery past and the influence of an African language on the creole language Papiamentu becomes clear.

    We were told that the sting of a maribomba is quite painful. But so far we have been spared.

    What can I find on Mambo Beach Boulevard?

    Answer

    Mambo Beach Boulevard borders directly on Mambo Beach: a hip shopping mile with a collection of restaurants and stores over two floors.

    In the stores you will find almost everything your heart desires: from beachwear and accessories, beauty and cosmetics stores, snorkeling and diving accessories to souvenirs and designer stores.

    The large selection of restaurants means there is something for every taste.

    Cool: The glass studio of radio station Dolfijn FM with a view of Mambo Beach.
