Here is the planned itinerary (subject to days changed due to weather or similiar)
March 2: - Fly into Curacao- try to land after 2pm. Transportation will be provided for you from Curacao International Airport to our beautiful villa that we will call home for the next 5 nights. Upon check-in you can drop your luggage and then explore the grounds, hit the pool, or take a nap. We will go for a walk on the beach at golden hour then have our first dinner together as a group before relaxing, chatting, maybe even playing card games, and heading to bed to rest up for a day of exploration tomorrow.
March 3- Optional yoga class for those interested at 7:45am. Then, we will start with breakfast as a group around 9am before heading into the city of Willemstad for a guided walking tour. This is a 2 hour walking tour that will highlight UNESCO World Heritage Sites and beautiful colonial buildings, allowing us to learn the rich history of Curacao. After our walking tour we will have lunch, followed by a period of free time to wander the shops of Willemstad and the historical streets. Later in the afternoon, we will all get massages (either on the beach or at our villa). Delicious dinner, and fall into bed.
March 4- Sunrise trip to the Jan Thiel Salt Flats to see wild flamingos. The flamingos are most active early in the mornings, so we need to arrive in the area at 6am (this activity is totally optional). Afterwards, we will have breakfast as a group, and head into Willemstad for an optional stand up paddleboarding tour of Spanish Water Bay. This is a beginner-friendly SUP tour of the mangroves, ending at noon- in time for us to grab some lunch. If you don’t want to join this adventure, you can spend this time wandering and soaking up the delightful town of Willemstad or whatever you’d like. Next, we will have a relaxing afternoon poolside at the villa or at Kokomo beach - a gorgeous beach with an Instagram-worthy ocean swing. (Or nap, if you got up at 5:30am to see flamingos!) We’ll have dinner as a group and rest for the next day’s coastal activities.
March 5- This morning we will have breakfast and get ready to head out on a gorgeous and relaxing all day catamaran tour. This includes an all-day excursion to Klein Curacao, a little island. We will relax, sunbathe, snorkel, swim, and nap. This catamaran includes an open bar and a BBQ lunch on the beach. Dinner, and to bed.
March 6 - Breakfast, and a mini road trip 1 hour north to (optional) hike a 2.5 mile loop trail hike at Boka Pistol in Shete Boka National Park. If we feel like it, we will take a little drive around the rest of the national park to see other stunning sites like Boka Wandomi (a natural limestone bridge over the ocean), Boka Tabla - an inlet where waves thunder into an underground cavern. We will have lunch at Isabelle Off the Beach restaurant, and spend the rest of the day relaxing and swimming and looking for sea turtles on Grote Knip Beach. We will enjoy a final dinner as a group, likely at Sol Food for delicious pizza. Then we will drive back to our villa to sleep.
March 7- We will enjoy the final morning of our retreat with whatever feels more zen to you: sleeping in, or oceanside morning yoga class! We can take a final morning dip in the pool, then check-out of our Airbnb. The trip is officially over at 10 am, and we will all head home. Transport back to the airport is arranged by ITW.
A reminder: your expenses are all paid, except your flights to and from curacao from your home. We cover lodging, activities, breakfast and dinner, transport, etc!
Into The Wild is now requiring its trip attendees to provide proof of travel insurance purchase for this trip. Generally this costs an extra $100 USD, and can save your bacon when traveling and things go wrong. Please email wendy@itwadventure.com if you have any questions about getting travel insurance.
Women often learn better through experiences with other inspiring women. This retreat is only for women and will be filled with warm, open, inviting leaders and attendees, who are all ready and waiting for a creative, immersive, relaxing experience.
