What do I need to know about the time zone and flight time to Curaçao?
Curaçao is in time zone UTC-4, which means that the island is five hours behind Dutch time (six hours in winter). The flight time Curacao from Amsterdam is approximately nine hours direct flight.

How do I recognize volcanic rock during walks?
The volcanic rock on Curaçao is mainly visible in the northern part of the island, especially around the Sint Christoffel mountain and in Christoffel National Park. These rocks often have a dark, porous structure and were formed by ancient volcanic activity. A good map of Curacao marks geological points of interest where you can see these formations.
