Postcards from Curaçao – The Complete Series
The complete series of Postcards from Curaçao with 16 episodes transports you to a place where you would rather be and hopefully brings you a moment of joy to your day so you can dream of Curaçao, an island located in the HEART of the Dutch Caribbean. The fact is, that this series also became extremely important to our community, our island and, also for us personally.
The Postcards from Curacao series not only transports you to the BEST Beaches, but you also visit the BEST hotels and Resorts and dive beneath the surface with the BEST recommended dive operators too. This series provides you an opportunity to see, above and below the waterline, why Curaçao is consistently a world class dive and vacation destination.
But these experiences alone can also be said about so many other world class destinations too, such as our better-known sister Bonaire. As true as this statement is, it is also true that as a community, “Curacao is clearly distinguishing ourselves from these other world class destinations by focusing on not only the blue factors but also highlighting the topside richness of our island where you can experience the essence of Curacao through the culture, language, music, and history.” says, Jeremiah Peek, General Manager of Ocean Encounters.
Jeremiah went on to say, “The fact is that Curaçao is one of the most unique islands in the Dutch Caribbean, if not the world, that offers everyone who visits something different because it bridges all the gaps, intrigues all the senses and allows you all the freedom to experience it, on your own terms. I guess that is why we say that all you need is to dive in and feel it for yourself”.
Travel Tip: Discover Punda Vibes every Thursday night in downtown Willemstad. This interesting event has turned into weekly habit that has been making waves in Punda on Thursday nights. Punda Vibes has a simple goal: to make people from all walks of life fall in love with Curacao’s booming art scene, history, and culture. It is a celebration of Punda’s booming art scene wherein the town showcases work from local artists. Pop-up craft markets, live theater, and historic dancing is combined with music that fills the alleys and where you will find yourself dancing under the stars. Afterwards, a stunning fireworks display decorates the sky.
Do not forget to check out this incredible area and weekly event when you are planning your Curacao vacation so that you can immerse yourself into one of the most beautiful inner cities in the world that is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Thank you for following the Series
At the very beginning we wrote, “It has been said that we should be patient in a storm and focus on the sunshine after.” But we all know that these “ground-hog days” during this global coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19) are not easy but we chose to ignore the obvious challenges and focused on the task of providing you with these weekly reminders that quickly became reminders for us too.
Why, you may ask? Because, we have the opportunity every day here on Curaçao, to feel, to taste, to experience the Dutch Caribbean but like most, the proverbial “forest always gets lost in the trees”. By providing you these moments, we also reminded ourselves how fortunate we are to live on this coral rock we call home and the inherit need to protect it for future generations.
Additionally, we must say that we are overwhelmed by the volume of positive feedback we received weekly from you. PLEASE, do not stop!
It is one thing to develop and deliver content where the only indicators of its effectiveness are the numbers displayed on a screen. But it is completely another thing when we hear from you personally via email or facebook messenger that our goal to provide “you a moment of joy, and tranquility to your day” was effective and appreciated, not to mention wanting to plan your next visit Curaçao as soon as you can!
WOW… THANK YOU for the overwhelming response and please continue sending us messages because we love hearing from you.
If you are thinking, dreaming and hopefully now planning a your next Caribbean holiday to Curaçao, please visit Dive Travel Curaçao to explore your options and of course all the opportunities that exist, above and below the waterline. We hope to see you soon!
