Day 2At sea.A full day at sea aboard Crown Princess. Sailing from Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) toward Willemstad.
Willemstad docks beside Otrobanda, and the walk across the Queen Emma pontoon bridge into the painted Handelskade frontage is the best free thing in the southern Caribbean. Curaçao's shore diving is unusually good and starts a short ride east.
Ways to spend your day

Lunch in Otrobanda
Make a waterfront meal the focus, with a shorter walk and no need to fill the whole day with stops.
Mambo Beach
Choose one beach area with a clear entrance, facilities and return pickup.
Oranjestad docks in the middle of town, with the pastel Dutch frontages and the shops immediately outside the terminal. Aruba's draw is the beach rather than the capital, and Eagle and Palm are both short rides north.
