庫拉索海灘上的陽光，衝浪和沙灘

Curacao beaches — the sun, surf, sand and the palm trees swaying in the ocean breeze – it’s the ultimate in relaxation. No trip to this Southern Caribbean island is complete without a trip to the beach!

這是庫拉索島上一系列文章的第二部分。

Curacao has 17 beaches on the island and when I was there recently I had the chance to visit 2 of the most gorgeous beaches that you’ll ever see – 卡巴納海灘 和 帕帕加約海灘度假酒店。島嶼東部的同一海灘系統的兩個部分，但氣氛略有不同。

（編輯添加：實際上總共有 35個海灘而不是17個. Not all the beaches are developed, in the sense that you have to pay entrance, some of them are secluded, or small, or they are beaches that you have to park your car at a distance or walk to via stairs or even reach by boat – Thanks 查拉 進行更正！）

要到達海灘，您可以乘坐出租車，但您也可以乘坐公共巴士（我的喜好). The bus terminal is outside the post office in Punda (downtown Willemstad). Take the “Punda/Caracas Baai Bus #6″(Cost is 1.50 Nafl) headed East and ask the driver to let you off at your destination. There are designated well-marked bus stops and signs for your return trip back downtown.

You can’t get lost taking the public bus as there are only two routes Otrobanda (West) and Punda (East).

卡巴納海灘

Beautiful soft sand under foot, the ocean and shade and I’m totally there.

Wait a minute — SHADE? Yup! You read that correctly. People tease me because I visit the Caribbean often, but I don’t like the sun – the heat I like but not the rash that the sun regularly gives me. I’ve been called the “English Patient” so many times due to all the clothes and the large brimmed hat that I always wear!

技術上 卡巴納海灘， 也 曼波海灘 隔壁就是 在 Seaquarium Beach. But who cares what they call it, it’s all the same sand and ocean.

價格非常合理，有和沒有遮陽的躺椅有很多選擇：
– Classic Bed (which is your standard reclining lounge chair)
– Luxe Bed (single mattress)
– Lounge Bed (double mattress)
– Club Cabana (sitting area plus mattress for 2)

Incidentally, there are multiple signs on the beach stating that there is free Wi-Fi. Hmm, this would be the perfect place for a working holiday! I’m not sure how much work I’d get completed, though.

還有一家商店，食品/餐館，酒吧和設施。

晚上，除了星期四，每週的每一天都在進行現場娛樂和舞蹈表演，主題各不相同。

這裡的整個氛圍非常舒適，悠閒和輕鬆。一個放鬆和放鬆的冷飲的理想場所。

緊鄰卡瓦納海灘的是 康提基海灘度假村 with their wooden exterior and thatched roofs — the perfect base station for fast, easy access to total relaxation.

帕帕加約海灘俱樂部

發現更東邊是 帕帕加約海灘度假酒店 它是Jan Theil Baai的一部分，也是Curacao的新高檔度假勝地和住宅區。

您可以分辨出Papagayo和Cabana之間的區別，因為Cabana舒適而無憂無慮的Papagayo發出了浮華，魅力和奢華。人們去看和看的地方。

有多家不同主題和風格的酒吧和餐廳。令我驚嘆的是該區域擁有所有白色家具，並帶有鮮豔的色彩，鬱鬱蔥蔥的綠色植物和亮片。

I see myself coming here dressed up for a nice dinner or drinks or for a party. Special of the day sounded delicious – surf and turf of lobster and steak.

I wouldn’t come here to lounge beforehand, though. I would just hate to be all sticky and sandy, etc. and then sit down to linen napkins and an excellent meal. But that’s just me because during my visit there were a lot of people lounging and quite a few families with children.

在島上時，您可以根據自己的興趣去其他許多海灘。

最好的浮潛和潛水海灘之一是加拉加斯拜。當地人蜂擁而至，尋找平靜的水域和他們可以探索的令人印象深刻的水下公園。

您還可以嘗試以下熱門海灘之一：

Kenepa海灘

This public beach is found at the less developed western side of Curacao and is perfect for a relaxing beach day. The beaches aren’t as crowded as some of the other popular tourists’ spots and you can rent loungers and use the restrooms for a fee. The waters are calm, beautiful blue and the beach is actually sheltered between cliffs on either side making it the perfect spot for couples or family beach trip.

普拉亞波爾圖瑪麗

這個海灘比某些海灘更熱鬧，但是氛圍很好。有一個酒吧和燒烤爐，還有雨傘，躺椅，淋浴和水肺潛水店等設施。在美麗的沙灘上休息，觀看清澈，平靜的水面，放鬆身心（即使您只是短暫停留在那兒）。這個地方非常適合家庭。

克萊恩·克尼普（Kleine Knip）

這個海灘是荷蘭遊客的熱門之地，開車一會兒就可以到達，但是如果您是浮潛的話，這是一個很棒的地方。有休閒椅出租和野餐桌供您野餐。沒有其他海灘那麼擁擠，您會感覺自己像是一個遠離繁華的遊輪港口的世界。  

選擇一個完美的海灘來種傘可能是一個具有挑戰性的決定，但是請放心，您選擇的任何一個都會很漂亮。島上的35個海灘為您的下一次旅行提供了很多選擇。

Hmm…with 17 beaches that would mean I would need at least 17 days to experience them properly…good thing they have Wi-Fi!
