I-Curaçao iyisiqhingi esiseningizimu yeCaribbean Sea, eduze nogu lwaseVenezuela. Lesi siqhingi ekuqaleni sasiyingxenye yama-Antilles aseNetherlands, ngemuva kuka-Okthoba 10, 2010, saguqulwa saba yizwe eliyisisekelo soMbuso waseNetherlands. Inhlokodolobha yaseCuraçao yidolobha eliyitheku iWillemstad, elaliyinhloko-dolobha yeNetherlands Antilles. ICuraçao kanye ne-Aruba neBonaire abangomakhelwane bavame ukubizwa ngokuhlanganyela ngokuthi "iziQhingi ze-ABC". ICuraçao inendawo engamakhilomitha-skwele angama-444 futhi iyisiqhingi esikhulu kunazo zonke eNetherlands Antilles. Ngokwe-Netherlands Antilles Census ka-2001, inani labantu lalingu-130 627, ngokwesilinganiso sabantu abangu-294 ngekhilomitha-skwele. Ngokwezibalo, isibalo sabantu ngo-2006 sasingu-173,400. I-Curaçao inesimo sezulu esinotshani obuncane obomile, obutholakala ngaphandle kwendawo yokuhlaselwa yisiphepho. Uhlobo lwezimila lweCuraçao luhlukile kunalelo lwesiqhingi esivamile sezwe, kodwa lufana naseningizimu-ntshonalanga ye-United States. Izinhlobo ezahlukahlukene ze-cacti, izihlahla ezi-spiny nezitshalo ezihlala ziluhlaza zivame kakhulu lapha. Indawo ephakeme kakhulu yeCuraçao yiChristofel Mountain eChristofel Wildlife Conservation Park enyakatho-ntshonalanga yesiqhingi, endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angama-375. Kunemigwaqo emincane eminingana lapha, futhi abantu bangathatha imoto, bagibele amahhashi noma bahambe ngezinyawo ukuvakashela. ICuraçao inezindawo eziningi zokuhamba izintaba. Kukhona nechibi lamanzi anosawoti lapho ama-flamingo avame ukuphumula futhi adle khona. Kutholakala ngamamayela ayi-15 ukusuka ogwini oluseningizimu-mpumalanga yeCuraçao kunesiqhingi esingahlalwa muntu- "iLittle Curaçao". ICuraçao idume ngezixhobo zamakhorali ezingaphansi kwamanzi ezilungele ukutshuza nge-scuba. Kunezindawo eziningi ezinhle zokuntywila olwandle oluseningizimu. Isici esikhethekile sokudilika kweCuraçao ukuthi kungamamitha angamakhulu ambalwa ukusuka ogwini, ulwandle lusezingeni eliphezulu, ngakho-ke umqhele wamakhorali ungasondela ngaphandle kwesikebhe. Le ndawo esezingeni eliphansi yolwandle ibizwa ngokuthi "umphetho oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka". Imisinga enamandla nokuntuleka kwamabhishi kwenza kube nzima ngabantu ukubhukuda nokuntywila ogwini olunamadwala olusenyakatho yeCuraçao. Kodwa-ke, abatshuzi abanolwazi kwesinye isikhathi bayatshuza besuka ezindaweni ezivunyelwe. Ugu oluseningizimu luhluke kakhulu, lapho umsinga uthule kakhulu. Ugu lwaseCuraçao lunamachweba amaningi amancane, amaningi awo alungele izikebhe. Eminye yemifula yamakhorali ezungezile ithintekile yizivakashi. IPorto Marie Beach izama ukuthola izixhobo zamakhorali zokufakelwa ukuze ithuthukise izimo zamakhorali. Amakhulu ezixhobo zamakhorali zokufakelwa manje seziyikhaya lezinhlanzi eziningi ezishisayo. Ngenxa yezizathu zayo zomlando, abahlali bakulesi siqhingi banezizinda ezahlukahlukene zobuzwe. IContemporary Curaçao ibonakala iyisibonelo samasiko amaningi. Izakhamizi zaseCuraçao zinozalo oluhlukile noma oluxubekile. Iningi lazo yi-Afro-Caribbean, futhi lokhu kufaka nezinhlanga eziningi ezahlukahlukene.
