About
Playa Canoa is a rugged north-coast beach and surf location on Curaçao. The exposed coastline has waves, rocky terrain and conditions very different from the sheltered beaches on the island's south coast. It is primarily known as a surf spot rather than a conventional swimming beach.
Tips
- Do not treat Playa Canoa as a calm swimming beach
- Surf conditions require experience or local guidance
- Wear suitable footwear for the rocky terrain
- Check weather, waves and road conditions before visiting
