Xerophites at the North East Coast

Banana di Rifi

At the North and North East coast, the puddles have wonderful colors. Due to the reddish and brown soil.

Like the "Banana di Rifi" these green sprouts are xerophites. Probably of the following shrub

Kinikini on Hato, North East Coast

Vaerssenbaai is a good start for climbing the Jamanika. There is also a very good restaurant to have drinks and food after having done the wonderful Jamanika trail. This trail offers views of the sea and of the island. From Vaerssenbaai there is also a trail along the coast to Boca Sami ( the village of Saint Michael). Sometimes it is not possible to cross the Boca Sami lagune to St. Michael. Turning and walking back to Vaerssenbaai is the only option. But it is a beautiful walk; no problem to do it up and down. See the trail page of Hiking Curacao for more photos and to read about the trails.
