Island of Curacao has charm in any language
Article Abstract:
Curacao has 55 plantation houses which tourists can visit for US$3. One, called Brievengat, is open on the last Sunday in each month. There are many hidden coves around the coast but some of the beaches in Curacao charge a fee of US$3 to use them. The Boca Tabla caves are worth visiting at a cost of US$1.50. The capital city of Willemstad reflects its Dutch background, with bridges named after Dutch queens and an area called "Little Amsterdam". Curacao offers tourists the opportunity to go scuba diving, visit an underwater aquarium or see the National Park.
