The engine kicks, gravel spits from the rear tires and the island’s wind takes the dust into long, bleaching plumes. On the Go West ATV tour you aren’t an observer — you’re the one making the tracks. For three hours you’ll race across Curaçao’s clay desert, dip into salt flats where flamingos pick at the shallows, slip through a natural cave and end the romp with a swim at Kokomo Beach.

Adventure Tips
Hydrate before you go
Bring at least 1–1.5 liters of water per person; island sun and wind dehydrate fast during three hours of riding.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes protect toes from rocks and ATV footrests; flip-flops are not suitable.
Sun protection is mandatory
Wide-brim hat for after the ride, high-SPF sunscreen and UV-blocking sunglasses will keep you comfortable.
Arrive early for check-in
Meet at the Dreams Hotel parking lot 20–30 minutes before departure to complete paperwork and the safety briefing.

Stick to the marked tracks to avoid fragile salt-flat crusts and nesting grounds; operators emphasize minimal disturbance to birdlife and shoreline habitats.
