Curacao Ferry

To the pleasant surprise of those who want to shop in Curacao, there is a free Curacao Ferry service that visits the capital city of Willemstad and carries eager shoppers to the main shopping areas on Curacao. Actually the two ferry dock destinations in Curacao are coincidently house the two places on the island that are most popular for their shopping arcades.

These 2 places being Willemstad's Punda and Otrobanda, which are served by regular ferry trips. These ferries are thus more like shuttles that carry passengers from one dock to the other, both mostly frequented for shopping.

This is not only a cost efficient way to reach the shopping centres in Curacao but doubles up as a pleasant boat ride for water travelers who can enjoy a spectacular view of the island from the sea passage. One popular tourist site that the ferry passengers can see from the boat is "The Queen Emma Pontoon Bridge", which is the largest pedestrian bridge in the world and is affectionately called "The Lady," by locals. This bridge connects the two shopping areas of Punda and Otrobanda.


Apart from ferrying to the shopping destination of your choice, history buffs can also get their feet wet on a free ferry ride for scheduled tours of the harbor, organized by some the island's museums.

The romantics can also enjoy the Day cruises available, that allow the vacationers to simply sit back and marvel at the panoramic vistas that surround the scenic island and its inviting gem colored waters.

Several companies on the island offer boat rental services for the discerning travelers. Sea fare depends on the type of boat trip one chooses and the company tariffs.
