New Year’s Day
New Year’s Day in Curaçao is a more laid-back affair. Locals often head to the beach for picnics, BBQs, or spend the day enjoying backyard meals with family. Most businesses are closed, including many family-run spots, and even some larger restaurants take a break to recover from the previous night's festivities. Larger hotels are usually open and a reliable option for dining. It’s a good day to unwind—though keep an eye on the Otra Guide's 'Happening Now' section, as you might just stumble upon a pop-up party!
