For family travelers in search of something a little off the beaten path, Curaçao just might be the answer. Curaçao is a magical destination, favored by families looking for beautiful beaches and an exotic atmosphere that combines a Dutch heritage with a strong South American influence and a Caribbean beat for a truly unique getaway.

Tucked into the far southern reaches of the Caribbean, less than 40 miles from the coast of South America, Curaçao is very much an international destination. Dutch is the official language, and you’ll hear many Dutch-speaking vacationers. Many South Americans also enjoy the island where most residents speak Spanish. Most Curaçao residents speak an amazing total of five languages: Dutch, Spanish, English, Papiamento, and either French or German.

Another major bonus for summer-traveling families: Curaçao is located south of the hurricane belt, missed by almost all the storms.
