Curaçao is a strong choice if you want a Caribbean trip with variety. You get beach time, snorkeling and diving, plus a walkable capital with distinct neighborhoods, shopping, and dining. Many travelers like that you can split a trip between resort areas and city stays without long transfers.
It is also a reliable destination for planning. Curaçao is located outside the Hurricane Belt, so it is often selected for year-round travel compared with islands farther north.
From a flights perspective, most itineraries route through major hubs in the U.S. or nearby Caribbean gateways. If you tell us your departure city, we can filter for the shortest travel time, preferred airlines, baggage rules, and the best fare types for your needs.
Most visitors arrive by air through these international gateways:
Curaçao International Airport (CUR): The island’s main airport near Willemstad, handling most flights from the Americas, Europe, and the Caribbean.
| Season | Regions | Weather & tips |
|---|---|---|
| Jan to Apr (drier months) | South coast beaches, Willemstad, Westpunt | Lower rain risk and steady trade winds. Great for beach days and outdoor plans. |
| May to Jun (shoulder season) | Island-wide | Warm and generally dry, often good value on flights and hotels. |
| Jul to Sep (hottest period) | North coast viewpoints, west coast coves, city evenings | Hotter days; plan midday breaks and do city exploring later. Showers can happen but are often brief. |
| Oct to Dec (wetter stretch) | Island-wide, especially for hiking spots | More rainfall overall, especially in Oct to Dec, but still plenty of sun. Pack a light rain layer and keep plans flexible. |
Most travelers need a valid passport, and visa rules depend on nationality. For many visitors a short-stay Caribbean visa is only required for specific countries, while U.S. citizens can stay in Curaçao without a visa or permit for up to six months per calendar year. You must also complete the Digital Immigration Card (DI card) online within 7 days prior to departure.
A few practical tips that make Curaçao trips smoother:
Complete the DI card early: Submit it within 7 days of departure so check-in and arrival go faster.
Know the currency setup: The Caribbean guilder (Cg, XCG) is the local currency, and it is pegged to the U.S. dollar.
Carry a little USD: U.S. dollars are widely accepted, and you will typically receive change in local currency.
Plan for connections: Many routes involve a connection; we can prioritize shortest total travel time or the fewest stops based on what matters most.
Ask for the right ticket rules: If your dates might change, request flexible or refundable fares so you know the real cost before booking.
Coordinate arrival time with your stay: If you are landing late, we can help you pick flight times that align with hotel check-in and ground transport plans.
Our agents will compare the best flight routes and send options tailored to your travel dates.
