Just a 10-minute drive from Big Knip is Playa Grandi, famous for the turtles that live in the area.
One of the most fun things to do in Curaçao is undoubtedly swimming with the turtles here. You are almost guaranteed to see them because they know there is food (the fishermen clean up their catch on the beach and throw the remains back into the sea). The turtles are used to people and are not afraid to get close! One of them swam straight at me, but I was able to dodge him just in time. Price: 10 ANG (US$11) for renting a bench.
