About

The historic PortoMari plantation covered about 594 hectares and has a documented history dating to 1684. Its landhuis was built in the second half of the 18th century, but it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground in the 1930s. The site is also connected to Curaçao's military history through Fort Porto Marie, which once protected the strategically important bay.
