BIJBLAUW FAVOURITES; PLAYA CAS ABAO
“My favourite thing to do is to go where I have never been”
THE ULTIMATE BEACH - Curacao is an island with many beaches and bays where you can relax and swim. Playa Cas Abao is one of those and you should have been there, because the beach is amazingly beautiful! With its clear turquoise water, fanning palm trees and white sand, Cas Abao will have you canceling your flight home. It truly is paradise!
No surprise, it is a favourite amongst locals and tourist alike, and has even been declared one of the most beautiful beaches of Curaçao. This beautiful beach can be found on the northwestern coast of Curacao and is best reached by car.
SOME FACTS
The beach is open daily from 8 AM to 6 PM, but unfortunately not accessible for free. Monday to Saturday you pay 10 ANG and on Sundays and public holidays you pay 12 ANG. These amounts apply to one car with four people. For each additional person in the car you pay 2,50 ANG extra. After paying at the barrier you'll drive a long, bumpy road towards the beach. At the end of the road, you'll be mesmerized by the beauty of the beach. A big plus for Cas Abao beach are the facilities. There’s a bar, restaurant (I enjoyed a delicious 'broodje kroket' myself! Yammie!), bathrooms, showers, lockers, dive shop, and massage facility. It has everything you need to enjoy your day at the beach.
My roommates and I absolutely loved the beach and its facilities, the white sandy beach and the blue waters. I most enjoyed the fact you could snorkel right off the shore! Just walk about 15 feet into the crystal clear water and start swimming. I was immediately surrounded by many different kinds of colorful fish! It was like swimming in an aquarium. I also heard some people nearby say that they had seen a sea turtle off the shore so keep your eyes open.
A day at the beach of Playa Cas Abao is not too busy (this time a year!), very relaxed and swimming in the clear blue water is wonderful! Enjoying a day here should not be missed.
Have you ever been to Playa Cas Abao? Did you like it as much as I did?
