Curaçao in $430s-$460s RT

When it comes to Curaçao, there are the usual suspects: floating markets, jet ski rides, and people-watching at the weekly Punda Vibes. All totally worth a try — but only a taste of what’s in store.

For those taking off early in the new year, Carnival is waiting (late February). Think of it like Mardi Gras, but with way more sequins, steel drums, and street parties that never stop. Just be prepared, they call them 'Jump-Ups' for good reason.

Prefer fewer crowds — or just a chance to sip your Blue Lagoon in peace? The International Film Festival in April delivers indie gems in a seaside cinema, long after the revelers have gone :-)

Who knew this laid-back Caribbean island could keep such a busy calendar?
