During a <b>Snorkeling Tour<\/b> you will discover how this <b>protected nature reserve<\/b> is home to sea turtles, colorful fish and impressive coral formations. <b>Playa Piskado<\/b>, also known as Turtle Beach, is known for the sea turtles that appear here every day. The <b>Sea Turtle Sanctuary Cura\u00e7ao<\/b> works to protect endangered species, and many local guides share their knowledge about these special residents.

These caves were created by <b>geological processes<\/b> that started millions of years ago, when Cura\u00e7ao was still below sea level. For coastal caves, visit <b>Boka Kalki<\/b> in the west, where the sea washes through natural arches. <b>Boca Sami<\/b> offers similar dramatic scenes, while the <b>Blue Cave<\/b> with its azure waters is a magical snorkeling location.
