THE MOST NEON BLUE YOU WILL EVER SEE
The lesser-known Grote Knip in Curacao truly stands out for its vivid neon turquoise waters, reminiscent of the famous Blue Curacao liquor. Nestled between rugged cliffs, this small cove is a local favorite due to its pristine setting. The stark contrast between the bright neon waters and the surrounding cliffs enhances its beauty, while the cliffs also provide a natural barrier that calms the waters compared to other beaches on the island. With minimal development and a friendly local pig family mingling among the comfortable beach loungers, Grote Knip remains a true hidden gem in the ABC islands. The natural beauty, along with options for cliff jumping and snorkeling, makes this beach a favorite among all who visit.
