Food Scene

One of my favorite restaurants on the island is Scuba Lodge. It's located just steps away from the apartment and it's open 7 days a week from 7:30 AM till late. They have oceanfront tables where you can enjoy your meal with your feet in the sand, and tables on the covered porch. Every Monday, there's a Chef's Tasting, on Thursdays they have a BBQ Night ($25 p.p. for 4 courses), and on Sundays from 4-7 PM, they serve authentic Indonesian satay. Must-go!

Restaurant Kome is just across the street. Kome is the Papiamentu word for “Eat”. Their food is very good and I especially enjoy their tapas night on Wednesdays. Make sure to make a reservation as this place can get crowded.

The Old Market is a local favorite! Here you can find local dishes such as goat stew, pumpkin pancakes, cactus stew and whole red snapper. It's tasty, cheap and absolutely authentic. If you enjoy your food spicy, make sure to ask for 'pika' (a typical Curaçao hot sauce).

Entertainment & Activities

If you're a diver and/or you enjoy snorkeling, you should visit Scuba Lodge Dive Center. You can book an introductory dive, diving courses, guided dives, and rent dive & snorkeling equipment. The team is super friendly and professional. Every Thursday, they drive to Westpunt in their American schoolbus to dive/snorkel/swim alongside wild sea turtles. A unique experience!

Miles, named after Jazz legend Miles Davis, is a cozy Jazz Café in the Nieuwestraat. Here you can enjoy laid back Jazz music from real vinyl turntables and cold drinks in a relaxing atmosphere. It's a small place which is visited by locals and tourists alike. It's easy to meet new people here.

Sightseeing

Make sure to walk over to Punda one day (10 minute walk). De Handelskade, our historic waterfront strip, is a vibrant reminder of Curaçao’s Dutch heritage, as well as a favorite photo-op for professional photographers and visitors alike.
