Curacao is known for its beautiful beaches on the south coast of the island. On the north coast<\/strong>, however, Curacao looks very different. Here the high waves pound against the beautiful coral rocks and therefore it is not easy to discover. Fortunately, there is a place where you can admire this extraordinary sight: Shete Boka National Park<\/strong>. For me, an absolute highlight during my trip<\/strong> and perhaps the most beautiful thing<\/strong> I saw in Curacao. In this article I tell you all about Shete Boka, the sea turtles, what to see and practical tips. Do you love outdoors and rugged nature?<\/strong> Then you’ve come to the right place.<\/p>\n

Shete Boka National Park Curacao<\/h2>\n

Right next to the famous Christoffelberg<\/strong><\/a> in the west of Curacao<\/strong><\/a>, you will find the Shete Boka National Park. ‘Shete Boka’ literally means ‘seven coves<\/strong>‘ in Papiamentu, and refers to the many natural coves and caves on the rugged northern coast.<\/p>\n

Established in 1994, the national park consists of more than 10 kilometers of rugged coastline<\/strong>. The area is known for the sea turtles<\/strong> that lay their eggs in the inlets.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
