Out and about with your Tiki BBQ Boat? Then you’ll pass by some unique spots you definitely don’t want to miss. Whether you’re in the mood for peace and quiet, adventure, snorkeling, or a tropical picnic – there’s something for everyone. Here are our favorite hotspots along the route:

🌿 Mangroves – Nature’s Peaceful Oasis
The mangroves are a special natural feature along the coast. With their distinctive long roots rising above the water, they provide a safe haven for countless fish, crabs, and birds.

But did you know they also help purify the water and act as a buffer against strong winds? These calm areas are perfect for taking a breath, soaking up nature, and enjoying the gentle lapping of the water around you. Ideal for a little zen moment on your Tiki BBQ Boat!

🏝️ Tiki Island (Shipwreck Bay) – A Tropical Paradise on the Water
Tiki Island is the place to stop, relax, and unwind. Located in the Shipwreck Bay, it has everything you need for a refreshing break:

  • A cozy Tiki hut for some shade
  • A picnic table that’s BBQ-safe (it stays cool!)
  • Lounge chairs to kick back and relax
  • A swim ladder to easily hop in and out of the water
  • And of course: crystal-clear turquoise water – perfect for snorkeling or a quick cool-down

Whether you’re with friends or your partner, you’ll feel like you’ve landed on a tropical island, far away from everything.

🏨 Sandals Hotel – A Touch of Luxury and a Refreshing Swim
Looking for a bit of luxury during your cruise? Moor at the floating dock near the Sandals Hotel. The water here is beautifully clear and ideal for snorkeling. The underwater world is full of color and movement – definitely worth grabbing your goggles!

Note: The beach itself is private property and belongs to the hotel.

🚤 The Curacao Yacht Club – Caution Zone
When passing the yacht club, you’ll notice a stretch where the waves bounce off a concrete wall. This creates choppy water with some annoying rocking. No worries – just steer around this area in a wide arc to keep your ride smooth and dry.

Whether you’re exploring nature, chilling on an island, or stopping for a snorkel session in clear water – these spots truly complete your Tiki Boat experience. 🌊🌞
