Klein Curaçao, Uninhabited island in Leeward Antilles, Caribbean Sea

Klein Curaçao rises 4 meters above sea level, extending over 1.7 square kilometers of white sand beaches surrounded by crystal waters.

The island operated as a quarantine station during the Caribbean slave trade period, with existing graves in the southern section marking this dark chapter.

The abandoned lighthouse from the 1850s stands as a remnant of maritime navigation, when the island served as a crucial shipping landmark.

Daily boat excursions depart from Curaçao main island, providing transportation, snorkeling equipment, and meals for visitors to the undeveloped terrain.

The Maria Bianca Guidesman shipwreck from 1988 rests on the windward coast, creating an artificial reef for marine species.
