This excursion includes relaxing on a tropical beach, appreciating history and culture, and taking in some beautiful natural landmarks.
Start with an interesting panoramic drive through UNESCO World Heritage Site downtown Willemstad, with plenty of facts for culture lovers.
Drive out of the city to visit the magnificent Hato Caves, which are more than 200,000 years old. As you walk with your guide, you'll see beautiful stalagmites and stalactites and learn all about the history of the caves.
Head to one of the island's most beautiful western beaches. Here, you will have some free time to relax on a beach chair, hang out at the beach bar or swim in the amazingly blue water.
En route back to the ship you will pass the natural salt flats, where you might spot some wild flamingos.
Notes:
The beach is secluded, natural and may be rocky in areas. Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen, light clothing to act as a full cover-up for further protection from the sun, and a hat. Swim at your own risk. There are many stairs at the Hato Caves. Wear sturdy non-skid walking shoes. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
