Before you go
What the guide flags for families.
- Short distances, but sun and stairs; add a beach day. (Good for · verdict: ok)
- Distances are short and flat, but pavements are narrow and the pontoon bridge deck is uneven: carriers are easier than strollers in Punda. (Kids)
- Curaçao Sea Aquarium and Mambo Beach are the easiest child-friendly half-day; the water is calm and shallow at Mambo Beach. (Kids)
- Kura Hulanda deals with the slave trade in a serious way and suits older children; the synagogue’s sand floor is a hit with younger ones. (Kids)
