Compare side by side

Find markets and supermarkets in Curaçao for fresh ingredients, breakfast supplies and groceries during your stay. Choose by location and opening hours, whether you are exploring Punda or stocking an apartment for the week.

A market stop in Punda

The Floating Market has produce stalls along the waterfront. Combine a visit with a walk through Punda, and ask what is available that day. Check whether a quoted price is per item, bunch or weight before buying.

Shopping for your accommodation

For a broader grocery shop, compare supermarkets along your route. Mangusa Hypermarket has departments for fresh produce, bakery items and household essentials. Van den Tweel has branches in Zeelandia and Jan Thiel. Choose the specific branch when checking directions and opening hours.

Plan your first shopping stop

On arrival day, allow time for immigration, luggage and collecting your transport before relying on an evening shop. Start with what you need for the first night and breakfast. Take reusable bags and buy chilled groceries near the end of your outing, especially if you still have a long drive.

FAQ

Are supermarkets open on Sunday in Curaçao?

Several are. Van den Tweel currently lists Sunday evening opening at both branches, while Mangusa Hypermarket lists 08:00–14:00. Check the chosen branch for holiday changes.

Do I board a boat to visit the Floating Market?

No. You visit the stalls from the quay in Punda. The boats are part of the market setting, rather than transport that visitors need to take.

Which supermarket is cheapest?

That depends on your basket and current offers. Compare the same product sizes and include transport costs. A long detour may cost more than you save on a small shop.
