Merrillville, Indiana, a town south of Gary, doesn’t have much going on outside of retail and chain restaurants. If you find yourself passing through, I can mention a few places to stop and see as well as some restaurants.
Klein Curaçao is one of the best day trips you can do while visiting Curaçao. This tiny uninhabited island lies 10 kilometers southeast of Curaçao.
Willemstad is the capital and largest city of Curaçao. It’s a scenic city with lots to discover.
This is my guide on what to see on Curaçao outside the city of Willemstad. Keep reading for some of the island’s most popular and hidden attractions. Not included are the two national parks on the island – Christoffel and Shete Boka – and stuff we didn’t have a chance to do such as the Curaçao Sea Aquarium.
Curaçao has some of the best beaches in the Caribbean. During our time on the island, we were able to spend time at several of them. We didn’t have time to visit all of the beaches on our list, but we definitely feel like we got to the best ones.
If you find yourself in Pereira with extra time to kill, head across the bridge to the suburb of Dosquebradas. This city is part of the UNESCO World Heritage listed Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia.
