Curaçao Banda Abou – serves as a complete and elaborate guide to Curacao’s western region, Banda Abou. Capturing in words and image essentially what makes life in Banda Abou so incredibly special.

The essence of Curaçao’s uniqueness comprises far more than the sun, sea, and sand that a paradisiacal island has to offer. With this in mind, Curaçao Banda Abou delves deeper into the island’s cultural richness with content ranging from interviews with influential island artists to spectacular dive spots, unique local dining and architectural marvels out West. Curaçao Banda Abou also contains insider tips from locals; this is also what makes the book so authentic.

Alongside interesting and descriptive texts on featured island locations, are tasteful photographs of some of Banda Abou’s most majestic and colorful sites. Including panoramic views along the northern and southern coasts of the “Land Down Under” (Banda Abou), and native inhabitants (ranging from participants of the Karnaval parade, to our island’s beautiful wildlfie). The book also includes a map of Banda ABou, listing the locations mentioned in the book.

A comprehensive manual, so to speak, containing insight into the fabulously simple lifestyle of the West. Book two caters not only to the adventurer and nature-lover, but the “stylista” and foodie alike. After having turned the last page, readers will have obtained the urge to get up and explore the region themselves!

Kristel Slagter, both a corporate lawyer and entrepreneur, has a passion for the arts, and is finally able to carry out her dream of publishing creatively styled products. Eef Ouwehand, a professional photographer specializing in portrait and comtemporary photography, is the master behind the creative images displayed in the book. Author Jennifer van der Kwast is the writer behind the many texts featured in the book.
