Located on the northwest coast, this green, quiet and less touristy part of the island is a paradise for nature lovers, divers, beach seekers and anyone looking to escape mass tourism. <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-rust-en-ruimte-de-charme-van-westpunt\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rest and space &#8211; the charm of Westpunt<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p id=\"h-rust-en-ruimte-de-charme-van-westpunt\">Westpoint feels different from the rest of Cura\u00e7ao. Where Willemstad and popular beaches can be crowded, here you will find peace, space and an authentic atmosphere. It is a place where you can really relax and enjoy nature and silence.  <\/p>\n\n<p id=\"h-rust-en-ruimte-de-charme-van-westpunt\">But note that amenities are limited. Large supermarkets, stores and gas stations are not in the immediate area. That makes it perfect for peace seekers, but it does require preparation.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-stranden-en-natuur-in-westpunt\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Beaches and nature in Westpoint<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p id=\"h-stranden-en-natuur-in-westpunt\">Westpunt is known for some of Cura\u00e7ao&#8217;s most beautiful beaches, surrounded by cliffs and clear turquoise waters:<\/p>\n\n<p>\ud83c\udfd6 <strong>Playa Kenepa Grandi (Grote Knip)<\/strong> &#8211; An iconic cove with spectacular views and crystal clear waters.<\/p>\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf0a <strong>Little Knip (Kleine Knip)<\/strong> &#8211; Smaller and quieter, ideal for snorkeling.<\/p>\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc22 <strong>Playa Kalki<\/strong> &#8211; Perfect for snorkelers and divers.<\/p>\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf05 <strong>Playa Forti<\/strong> &#8211; Known for the view from the cliffs and the popular cliff jumping point.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>\ud83c\udf3f Also discover small, secluded beaches without facilities<\/strong>, such as <strong>San Juan<\/strong>. Here you will find pure nature, no beach beds or beach bars &#8211; just peace, sea and quiet. Do bring your own water and supplies.  <\/p>\n\n<p id=\"h-stranden-en-natuur-in-westpunt\">In addition, world-famous dive sites such as Mushroom Forest and Alice in Wonderland are located in the area.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@CuraExploreCarRentals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5434 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cura-explore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/San-Juan-westpunt-autoverhuur-curacao-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"San Juan west point curacao car rental\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cura-explore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/San-Juan-westpunt-autoverhuur-curacao-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cura-explore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/San-Juan-westpunt-autoverhuur-curacao-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cura-explore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/San-Juan-westpunt-autoverhuur-curacao-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cura-explore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/San-Juan-westpunt-autoverhuur-curacao.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-verblijven-aan-de-westkant\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Staying on the west side<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p id=\"h-verblijven-aan-de-westkant\">Staying in Westpoint means waking up to sea views, enjoying peace and quiet and spectacular sunsets.
