Klein Curaçao

An uninhabited island about two hours off the south-east coast, reachable only by boat. There are no shops, no shade to speak of and no scheduled ferry — everyone comes on a day trip with one of the operators below, and the boat you pick shapes the whole day.

Getting there

Everyone goes as a day trip, and the vessel matters more than the price — a catamaran crossing and a speedboat crossing are genuinely different days out.

Read this before you book

The crossing is open water and it can be rough. Speedboats are faster but take the swell harder; catamarans are slower and steadier. If anyone in your group is prone to seasickness, that trade-off matters more than anything else on this page.

    What we haven't confirmed

    Most operators don't publish a fixed per-person price — it moves with season and group size. Where we have a figure it's on the card above with its date. Where we don't, we've left it blank rather than quote a number we can't stand behind.
