Playa Cas Abao
★★★★☆
(1,640)
Known by many as the most beautiful beach on Curacao, and thought to be one of the 5 most beautiful beaches in the world, Playa Cas Abou is a wonderful shore dive with a healthy reef system teeming with marine life siting right off the beach. White sandy bottom with the drop off starting at 9 mtr / 27 ft.
It is the home of a large scaly tailed mantis and frogfishes have also been regulary spotted here. In the deeper part you often find green moray and lobster
