Playa Caracasbaai – or Caracasbaai Beach – is located on the southwest coast of Curacao. Just five kilometers from the historic heart of Willemstad. This relaxed beach is located in the north of Caracasbaai, surrounded by other gems such as Baya Beach, Tugboat Beach and Director’s Bay.
The Depth and Importance of Caracas Bay
Did you know that Caracas Bay is one of the deepest inlets of Curacao? With a depth of up to 250 meters! That is why you sometimes see enormous sea vessels here that come to refuel or be repaired. Quite an impressive sight!
What does Playa Caracasbaai look like?
Playa Caracasbaai is a mix of coarse sand, shells, pebbles and rocks. The water gradually gets deeper, perfect for families with kids. With palm trees and palapas for shade, and a steel pier from which you can dive, it is a wonderful place to stay. Especially on weekends, the beach is the place to be for local families. They come here to have a nice barbecue, drink a beer, party and enjoy the sea.
