Pirates Bay

Not every beach on Curaçao requires a long drive to Westpunt. Pirates Bay, officially known as Pirate Bay, lies on the Piscadera Bay near Willemstad. Here you will find a combination of beach, palm trees and a restaurant where you can eat with your feet almost in the sand. It is an accessible destination for families who want to alternate swimming with good food and relaxing by the sea.

A relaxed atmosphere on the bay

Pirates Bay lies on a sheltered stretch of coast with a view over the Caribbean Sea. Unlike the remote natural beaches in the west, here it is not only about the surroundings but also about the fun atmosphere. You can use a sun lounger, have a drink or enjoy a long lunch at the restaurant. The combination of beach and hospitality makes it appealing when you are traveling with children and do not want to bring all your own food and drinks for the whole day.

There is also something going on beyond the restaurant. The Piscadera Bay has several beach sections and places to eat, so you can easily take a walk along the coast. The character is informal and inviting, without you having to plan a complete day program.

Swimming and enjoying with the family

The location in the bay makes Pirates Bay an interesting spot for a family outing. The beach offers room to play, cool off and enjoy the view together. The sea, of course, remains natural swimming water. Check the conditions on site and keep a close eye on children while they swim.

Easy to reach with a rental car

Pirates Bay lies in the Piscadera area, west of the center of Willemstad. With a rental car you can easily drive there. This means you can combine the beach nicely with a visit to Otrabanda or a drive toward the western beaches.

Piscadera Beach is freely accessible, but charges may apply for sun loungers and additional services. Check with the beach club which facilities are available. Especially when you are looking for a beach day with a restaurant within easy reach, Pirates Bay is a great option.
