All boat trips to Fuik Day 2025 bookable through NaarCuracao (GoingToCuracao) are offered including Open Bar. That means various soft drinks, water and juices anyway. In terms of alcoholic beverages, it may vary per boat. Anyway, every boat has beer and wine.

Each trip offers a lunch. On the private trip, that’s a sandwich lunch. On the single-ticket boats, that’s a delicious BBQ lunch. The stylish catamaran offers snack for lunch, but not included in the ticket.

At NaarCuracao we only work with reliable partners. Unfortunately every year you hear the stories that people have paid a lot of money for a ticket, but on the day itself their boat turns out to be rented to others.
If you book your ticket (or private boat) for Fuik Day 2025 through NaarCuracao, then you are 100% sure that you will actually go to Fuik Day*.
*: subject to technical problems preventing the boat from sailing at all.

When booking, you make a deposit. This allows us to definitively claim your ticket or private boat and gives you certainty that you will go to Fuik Day 2025. The remainder of the payment must be paid in full no later than two weeks in advance, i.e. Sunday, December 22, 2024. If payment is not made on time, your reservation will expire without the right to a refund of what you have already paid.

Fuik Day is always on the first Sunday in January. Unless that Sunday falls on January 1, then it will be a week later. So for 2025, it will be on Sunday, Jan. 5.

Fuik Day is always held in Fuik Bay. A beautiful bay on the east side of Curaçao. Fuik Bay is located on private land and is only accessible by sea. So it is not possible to come to Fuik Day by car, bike, public transport, walking, etc, it is really only possible by boat.

Fuik Day itself (the party) is actually free. You only pay a ticket for a boat to get there. And any boat that wants may sail right into Fuik Bay and join Fuik Day. You may also bring your own food and drink on most boats. And remember a floatie to float on because you’re not going to last a few hours of water tramping.

No, you can’t. Fuik Day is a celebration on the water in Fuik Bay. That bay is on private property that you, as a stranger, cannot just enter. The only access to Fuik Bay (and thus Fuik Day) is by sea.
And for the sake of completeness: That is not to swim or just float on your air mattress. You can only get to Fuik Day if you have arranged for a spot on a boat.

In doing so, don’t focus too much on the time your boat leaves in the morning. The party in Fuik Bay will erupt around 12:30 PM. Even on the boats that leave hours earlier. Of course it will be a party and fun in the morning hours as well, but most DJs will only play Jay in the afternoon.
At 05:00 PM the music goes off and the party is more or less over.
Make sure you get back to your boat on time, most boats don’t wait that long for stragglers!

You can try, but the chances are pretty slim. The boats have usually arranged full payment (well) in advance, so if people have paid US$ 310 p.p. or more for a ticket then there must be a very serious reason that they won’t show up and thus still offer a spot for you.

No, you can’t. Some boats might offer bottle service for their guests, but better bring everything yourself or be sure it is included within your ticket. There are no food trucks, bars, etc. at Fuik Day. You can’t buy anything there; you are completely dependent on the catering provided by your boat or what you bring yourself. And think of things like sunscreen, a floatie, etc. yourself.

Fuik Bay is big enough, but again, not unlimited in size and most importantly, not unlimited in depth. The big boats leave earlier in the day because it is more difficult for them to maneuver in the bay to get to the right place, side-by-side with the other (big) boats. And if they arrive too late, they won’t be able to get to the right place in the bay anyway.
For the smaller boats it is easier. They are easier to “park” somewhere and therefore do not have to leave so early.

Oh, no! That’s not very convenient of you to get back to the boat late….
Try to go back with another boat. If that doesn’t work, you will have to swim to shore and walk back. And that is at least an hour’s walk in the heat of Curaçao, with probably quite a few drinks and a floatie under your arm…. good luck!
So…. be wise and rather be back at the boat 5 minutes early than 1 minute late.
