Playa Piskadó (Playa Grandi)

Playa Piskadó

A small fishing harbor beach on the western end, where fishermen clean their catch at the pier and draw groups of green sea turtles. You can swim with the turtles just by snorkeling.

Also known as Playa Grandi, this small beach is where fishermen process their catch by the jetty after returning to port early each morning. The discarded fish offal draws large numbers of green sea turtles into the shallows. You can rent snorkel gear and watch them from the water, but please do not touch or feed the turtles. Entry is free and facilities are basic, with a few snack stands. The beach is about a 55-minute drive from Willemstad and is often visited together with Playa Kenepa Grandi and Playa Kalki.
