Curaçao → Grote Knip: key facts

Getting from Curaçao Airport (CUR) to Grote Knip takes about 45 min by car on an empty road (45–55 min in heavy traffic) over 37 km via Weg naar Westpunt. Our private transfer costs €90 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €130 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the public area at the exit of the Arrivals Hall, after immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. The kerb in front of the Arrivals Hall is not a pick-up zone, so you walk together to the car in the airport parking area next to the terminal. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Grote Knip, also called Kenepa Grandi, is a beach in the Bandabou region at the western end of the island, about 37 km by road from the airport. The route leaves Hato on Weg naar Hato and follows Weg naar Westpunt, the main road to the west, and Kaminda Prospero Popo Rojer through the dry, hilly countryside of Bandabou, covered with cactus and scrub, before rejoining Weg naar Westpunt for the last stretch. A short side road, Grote Knip Road, leads down to the beach and its parking area.

The beach is a wide bay of white sand below the hills, with shade huts, a snack bar and steps down from a viewpoint on the cliff above. Playa Kenepa Chiki, a smaller cove, is a few minutes north, and the historic Knip plantation house stands inland near the road. Westpunt, the westernmost village with Playa Forti and Playa Kalki, is about 3 km further on, and the entrances to Christoffel Park and Shete Boka are along the same road on the way back.

Public transport: The airport lists only a general public bus service from the stops at the Arrivals and Departures Halls; there is no direct airport service to Grote Knip, and buses to the west of the island start from Willemstad.
