Why reserve your beach chairs in advance 

Curacao is one of the most visited cruise destinations in the Caribbean, and the island's best beaches reflect that. On days when multiple ships are in port, demand for beach chairs at most of the beaches peaks early in the morning.

Reserving online through SandySpot before your trip means:

• Your chairs and umbrella package are confirmed before you leave home
• No queuing or uncertainty when you arrive at the beach
• Ideal for families securing enough chairs for everyone in one booking
• Available across multiple Antigua and Barbuda beaches, so that you can choose your preferred spot in advance

For cruise passengers disembarking at the Willemstad Cruise Terminal, there is no shortage of beautiful beaches to explore. Taxis are readily available at the terminal and operate on set island rates. The table below shows approximate travel times from the terminal to each Sandy Spot beach location.
