How far in advance should I book?

October 31, 2025
During peak season, day trips sell out weeks before departure. We recommend booking as soon as you know when you want to go to Klein Curaçao. Booking early eliminates any risk. To reserve and secure your spot(s), you only need to pay a small deposit of 20%....

Can I cancel for free?

October 31, 2025
You can cancel free of charge up to 48 hours before departure. Cancellations made less than 48 hours before departure may incur a fee. Cancellations are generally not possible within 24 hours of departure, as the powerboat operates with a small group and spaces are strictly limited.

What is included in this trip?

October 31, 2025
You'll depart from Jan Thiel Beach to Klein Curaçao by powerboat. The return trip takes about 45 minutes. On the island, you'll enjoy a BBQ lunch, a cooler with water, soft drinks, and beer/wine, and you'll have time to snorkel and explore the island.

Is there shade and a lounger for everyone?

October 31, 2025
On Klein Curaçao, there are palapas and a beach hut where you can sit in the shade. Unlike with Mermaid or Miss Ann, there are no reserved sunbeds on this tour, so you choose your own spot on the beach and can return to the boat at any time.

How does payment work?

October 31, 2025
You book through Caribbean Tours and pay a deposit of approximately 20% upon reservation. This secures your date. You pay the remaining balance via a payment link you receive by email.

Where and at what time do we leave / how long is the trip?

October 31, 2025
The powerboat departs from Jan Thiel Beach at 10:00 AM. The trip to Klein Curaçao takes about 45 minutes. You'll return in the afternoon, arriving back at Jan Thiel by 4:00 PM.

Can I be picked up from my hotel?

October 31, 2025
No, hotel transfers are not available for this tour. Departure is from Jan Thiel Beach, and you must travel to the departure location yourself.

Is this trip suitable for children or someone with reduced mobility?

October 31, 2025
The powerboat is a fast, sporty vessel. The trip is short (about 45 minutes), so most people don't experience seasickness. For very young children, pregnant travelers, or those with limited mobility, a larger boat may be more comfortable. If you have any doubts, please let us know when booking.

What if I get seasick easily?

October 31, 2025
This tour is perfect if you don't want to get seasick: because the powerboat travels quickly and glides low over the waves, you'll arrive at Klein Curaçao in about 45 minutes, leaving little time to feel nauseous. If you're particularly sensitive, you can still take a tablet 30 minutes before departure.

What should I bring myself?

October 31, 2025
Swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses or a hat, your own snorkel gear if needed, and some cash for tips or extras. You'll be back faster than with the other boats, but the sun is just as strong, so applying plenty of sunscreen remains important.
