- Caribbean ↗Several islands (Turks and Caicos above all, also the Bahamas and Jamaica) jail visitors for a single stray bullet or cartridge in their luggage; empty every bag and pocket before you pack.
- Caribbean ↗From August to October keep a free last day before your flight home and check the national hurricane centre daily; airports close when a named storm approaches.
- Caribbean ↗Wearing camouflage clothing is illegal for civilians in several islands, including Barbados, Antigua, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, Grenada, Dominica, Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica; leave it at home, children's clothes included.
- Curaçao ↗Curaçao sets its own entry rules as part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands: every visitor completes the free Digital Immigration Card at dicardcuracao.com before travel, and airlines check it at boarding.
- Curaçao ↗Leave nothing in a parked car at beaches, viewpoints and trailheads: break-ins are the most common crime against visitors.
- Curaçao ↗Buses are infrequent outside Willemstad: rent a car for the beaches and parks.
- Willemstad area ↗Rent a car for the beaches and parks: a rental costs less than repeated taxis and lets you start before the heat.
- Willemstad ↗The Queen Emma pontoon bridge swings open for ships and can cut Punda from Otrobanda for 10–20 minutes: leave a buffer before a fixed time on the far shore, and use the free ferry when it runs.
- Willemstad ↗Sun and wind hide the heat: do harbour walks before 11:00 or after 16:00, with a hat and water.
