Behind the Gate: Why the Carmabi Foundation Exclusive is Curaçao’s Best Kept Secret

Each year, over 12,000–14,000 school children participate in hands-on learning programs designed to foster a connection with nature. Environmental Consultancy:

While the public snorkels at the main beach, the Exclusive pass takes you to the "House Reef" that has been closed to mass tourism for over a decade. The result? Elkhorn coral formations that look like a time machine to the 1980s. You won’t see broken coral from flippers here. You will see parrotfish the size of dinner plates and, if you’re lucky, the resident sea turtle that has learned that only 12 people a day enter its territory.
