ACTIVE THINGS TO DO ON DUSHI KORSOU: Who doesn't love a little action?

Curaçao isn’t just the perfect place to kick back and relax on the beach all day, our Dushi Korsou is also full of adventure and energy. From hiking through rugged nature parks to diving into the crystal-clear sea, there’s always something to get your heart pumping.

It’s the ultimate island for those who want the best of both worlds: chill beach days and unforgettable activities. So, pack your sunscreen and your sneakers, Curaçao is ready for you.

Climbing the Mount Christoffel

Mount Christoffel

If lying on the beach all day isn’t really your thing, then climbing Mount Christoffel is an absolute must when visiting Curaçao. It’s a real adventure and the view from the top makes every step worth it.

To beat the heat, it’s best to start your hike early (around 6 AM) so an early bedtime the night before is a good idea. The trail begins with a peaceful hike through nature and along the way, there are a few viewpoints where you can already enjoy stunning glimpses of the landscape.

Once you reach the halfway point (look out for the famous halfway stone!), you’ll feel a boost of excitement. The final stretch gets more intense, you’ll need to climb a bit, but reaching the top is such a rewarding moment. The view is breathtaking and the photos you’ll snap up there will be unforgettable.

Diving

If you love exploring the underwater world and snorkeling just isn’t enough anymore, diving in the crystal-clear waters of Curaçao is the perfect next step. The island is full of beaches with dive shops offering trial dives, perfect for beginners who want to experience the magic of diving for the first time.

Already have your PADI? Then you’re all set! You can easily rent gear and explore the reefs on your own. Curaçao is also an amazing place to get your PADI certification. With calm, warm waters and beautiful dive spots, it’s the ideal place to learn and become a real dive master.

And it doesn’t stop there, want to do something extra cool? You can join special courses like lionfish hunting or even train to become a rescue diver. There are so many options on the island to take your diving skills to the next level!

Climbing the Tafelberg

Are you a fan of a good, challenging walk or hike? Then climbing the Tafelberg in Curaçao is an absolute must. It’s a unique experience: the view from the top is truly breathtaking, and the route to get there can be quite tough. In some parts, you’ll even need to use both your hands and feet to climb up.

The hike to the top of the Tafelberg can only be done with a guide. One of the organizations that offers these tours is Rock Climbing Curaçao. They organize different types of hikes to the top of the mountain, such as a sunset hike or a sunrise hike. During these special tours, you’ll witness the sun rising or setting from the top of the Tafelberg, a spectacular sight you won’t forget anytime soon!

Buggy tour

If you do not mind getting sandy and enjoy getting an adrenaline boost, then a buggy tour over the Hato plains is an activity you need to try! You will go to the office of curacao activities, and from there on, you will get in your buggy and start exploring. It is an awesome experience and also very fun. You can go together in one buggy.

Bachata dance class

If you’re into moving your hips and want to try something fun and cultural, bachata dance classes are a great choice! Whether you go solo or with a partner, you’ll be dancing with all kinds of different people, making it a social and exciting experience.

There are beginner classes for those just starting out and advanced ones if you already know your way around the dance floor. You’ll learn the basic steps and rotate partners, so you get to practice with everyone.

It’s not just about dancing, it’s also a super fun way to connect with the local culture and vibes of Curaçao. Definitely a must-try if you want to do something a little different!
