Many tourists come to Curaçao for its small, secluded beaches. If you're looking to take part in local life, get to a beach on Sunday and join residents for a day of barbecues, socializing, and relaxation. The capital, Willemstad, is a historically significant city and a busy seaport. Learn more about the island and the region at the Curaçao Museum, and visit the <a title="Museum Kura Hulanda" href="https://www.afar.com/places/kura-hulanda-museum-willemstad">Kurá Hulanda Museum</a> for information about the region's role in the slave trade. The main shopping area is in the <a href="https://www.afar.com/places/punda-district-willemstad">Punda District</a>, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its brightly colored buildings.
