Description
Klein CuraƧao is a small piece of uninhabited paradise just off the coast of the main island of CuraƧao, famous for its white sand beach and sea turtle colonies. The only way to get to Klein Curacao is by boat and taking a powerboat tour is your fastest way to get there!
You will meet the crew at the Zanzibar Restaurant in Jan Thiel beach at 10:00 am in the morning. You will listen to a safety briefing and sign a waiver form before taking your seat. We will cruise through Jan Thiel Bay on slow speed and once we are on open sea, we head directly towards Klein Curacao on full speed.
The speedboat ride to Klein Curacao takes 35 to 60 minutes depending on sea conditions. Once we get to Klein Curacao you will see a small piece of paradise that you will have all to yourself. Go snorkeling with turtles and explore the vivid underwater world at the reefs, work on your tan on the beautiful white sand beaches, walk to the historical lighthouse or enjoy an ice cold beer at the open bar.
Around 3:30 pm we start preparing for our adventurous ride back to Curacao. The way back is easier and takes 25 to 30 minutes maximum. On Saturdays, you can head straight for the Happy Hour which starts at 5:00 pm at Zanzibar.
Important
The sea conditions are unpredictable and we often encounter high waves, strong winds and strong currents on our journey. This is the reason why other boats are rocking a lot, making a majority of the people on the boats sea sick. However, with a powerboat, we are cruising on high speed and we are not rocking on the waves, thus, it is less likely to get sea sick. As a matter of fact, you won't even have time to get sea sick as we reach the island in less than 1 hour, whereas other boats need at least 2 hours to get there.
We strongly discourage pregnant women and people with back, neck or any other injuries from booking a high-speed boat ride. You participate in the powerboat tour at your own risk. It is important that you are physically able to climb in and out of the boat and that you are able to move with the boat.

If you like water, speed and deserted islands in the middle of the Caribbean ocean. This is the best activity you can find on Curacao. Full of adrenalin in a fun and safe way but also plenty of relaxing during this trip. We had a awesome trip to Klein Curacao, thanks to team powerboat!October 04, 2018

Totdat we had a fantastisch boat trip with two families to little curacao. We started at 10.00 in the morning and there was quite a lot of wind but it was a superior experience, the kids had a lot of fun. At the Island it is wonderfull, swimming with turtles is an amazing experience. We hade a lot of fun with the ācaptainsā Tamara and Irvin, they are very kind peopleAugust 06, 2018

We didn't get to make it to the sister island due to high tides :( However they made up for it by giving us a nice island tour of different spots on the island. We also took a dip at Santa Barabara Resort and snorkeled at the ship wreck. I definitely recommend this excursion, our host Tamara and her fiance were super accommodating. They made sure my husband and I were okay since we sat in the front. They also recommended activities and places for us to check out during our stay here Its def an experience speeding through the rough waters, a must do!June 28, 2018

Hi Stephanie, thank you so much for the review. Very happy to read that we were still able to give you an amazing experience on board even though Klein Curacao was not possible. Again, thank you and hope to see you again someday!

Speedboat trip to Klein Curacao was a combo of many great things; snorkel boat trip w out sea sickness, awesome snorkeling including sightings of a green turtle and an octopus, and finally wonderful white sand beaches and blue/green ocean! Tamara and Irvin were wonderful tour guides. Very easy to chat with and they provided great additional recommendations for food and fun!April 26, 2018

We had a wonderful speed boat trip to Klein Curacao with Powerboat Caribbean! The ride over was a bit rough, but our captain Irvin did all he could to maneuver over the rough water. Probably my mistake for sitting in the front of the boat. When we got to the island it is so peaceful and relaxing. You can swim, snorkel, lay in the sun or just chill. There is an old, deserted lighthouse you can walk to and climb up if you want to.The ride back was smoother for me as I was told, in English, that those on the north side of 50 are encouraged to sit in the back of the boat. The only things you need to bring are food for lunch, sunscreen and a towel to lay on is also necessary. Water and some other drinks were provided. Irvin and his friend assisting were super friendly and professional and did everything to ensure we all had a truly enjoyable day. They seem to really enjoy what they do....it's not just a job. I would definitely take another of their excursions should I get back to Curacao someday! Thanks for the great day!April 20, 2018

Thank you so much for this wonderful review, we are thrilled to read that you had an amazing day and we truly hope to welcome you on board again one day. It truly is a lifestyle for us and not just a job, thank you for the kind words.

We took the Klein Curacao tour with Stijn in middle of February. Captain Stijn was awesome, he was very entertaining as well as a class act operator. You will never feel anxious or apprehensive in any way while on his tour. The reason we opted for the powerboat tour vs slow and relaxed catamaran or other tours was mainly due to the fact that our whole party is prone to sea sickness. Rest assured, taking the powerboat ride, you will not be sea-sick, it's very exhilarating and a blast, especially if you have no sea legs! The sea was rough the day we went but Stijn rode it out very well. My lower back is not the greatest but I fared out well, no issues. If you have serious back issues, you will likely find it uncomfortable. (they state this prior to boarding) We were less than 40 minutes to get there and a little less coming back, we stayed on the island for 3 or 4 hours which is more than adequate. You will have a palapa for you and your shipmates while on the island, Stijn will have a cooler with water and sodas, we brought our own wobbly pops. Do check out the shipwreck and lighthouse, the lighthouse was under re-construction while we were there, do not cross the caution tape to enter the lighthouse, the floors are all tore up and it could be dangerous (the view from atop the lighthouse was really cool by the way!)March 02, 2018
On the way back we pulled into a bay by Pop's Place restaurant and helped rescue a sea turtle that was caught up in a fisherman's line. I have it on video and will post soon.
All in all, everyone in our party agreed Klein Curacao and Powerboat Caribbean is a must do while visiting curacao. Cheers Stijn!

We had an wonderful trip to Klein CuraƧao with Powerboat Caribbean! It's exciting (the trip with the powerboat) and relaxing (the time at the island). Irwin and Tamara are very friendly. We liked the fact that you are in a small group, in comparison to the people on the catamarans. Definitely recommended!February 27, 2018

A great day out with amazing crew. We had such a good time. It was a quick ride over (although an adrenaline fuelled one) to Klein Curacao, and we were on the island for about 3 hours which was perfect as there isn't too much to do. They provided snorkelling equipment and handled the boat very well even though it was a very rough day. Highly recommend!January 25, 2018

We went to 'Klein Curacao' with the powerboat. It was a bumpy and adventurous ride because of the strong wind but for sure worth it. The stay on the island was amazing and the crew was really friendly and helpfull. I would highly recommend this trip!January 24, 2018
Response from supplier
Hi Suze, thank you so much for your review and recommendation. We hope to welcome you again someday on board :) Kind regards

I highly recommend this tour to thrill seekers looking to see curaƧao in a different way. We reserved this tour really late the night before and tamara was super helpful in making that happen. I usually suffer from sea sickness so i was afraid of going on the tour but this boat goes so fast theres no time to feel seasick. We went during rough seas and got to Klein Island in about 45 minutes, felt like a roller coaster, very fun!January 06, 2018
Tamaras boyfriend was operating the boat and he was very knowledgeable and helpful. He spoke english very well and helped us in finding sea turtles while snorkeling. Obviously bring some food as there is none for sale on the island since it is uninhabited. I highly recommend this tour for the more adventurous souls.

Went on a trip to Klein CuraƧao today with my teenaged kids ( 30 min from CuraƧao with Powerboat Caribbean ). Trip was awesome! Excellent personal service. For everyone who likes a fast action trip over water and great sight seeing i recommend this. Trip to Klein CuraƧao was a blast. They also have other trips allong the coast of CuraƧao that should be great too. That will be my next adventure. Thank you Powerboat Caribbean!December 21, 2017
