CURACAO best Snorkel and beach?

[Gabcruiser]

My Husband and I  will be in Curacao for one day on a cruise. We love to snorkel and a beautiful beach.  We are looking for a beach to rent beach chairs/umbrella a place for food and a drink.  We will probably take a taxi.  Some of the places we were looking at are Playa Porto Mari, Playa Lagun and maybe the resort Chogogo with a day pass.

We would welcome any suggestions on what you recommend!  thank  you!

I would take Chogogo off the list.

If you are looking for a resort with decent snorkeling,  check out a day pass at Avila or the Marriott. 

Taxis to the beaches such as Lagun and Porto Mari are expensive here.

@grimpil not sure why you pulled up this thread after 7 months, but yes both Bonaire and Curaçao have a resort named Chogogo. Which really isn’t that strange considering that “chogogo” is the word for flamingo in the local language on both islands.
