Willemstad · Curacao

The short version, from the cited sources

Kenepa Beach, known locally as Grote Knip, is a small white-sand cove on Curacao's rugged northwest coast, framed by a tall limestone cliff beside the dry, cactus-studded landscape typical of the island. Its clear, calm water and shaded picnic spots under the cliff make it one of the most photographed beaches in the Dutch Caribbean.
