More about this guide

Kofihowz is the surprise of the route — a seriously good coffee stop in the middle of nowhere that has become a cult destination for islanders who make the drive just to visit. Sabor di Playa Westpunt puts you right on the beach with fresh fish and cold drinks — arguably the best lunch view on the entire island. Restaurant Toko Nos Krusero is the neighborhood community spot: simple, local, and exactly right.

Tip from locals

Bring cash — many Westpunt spots do not take card. Fill up on fuel in Willemstad before heading out.
