The mystery of Klein Korsou..
In the 17th and 18th century the Dutch West Indian Company used Klein Curaçao as a place to quarantine slaves from Africa before being brought to Curaçao. The slaves and crew members that were sick or did not survive the horrendous voyage were buried on the island. The remains of the first quarantine building and several graves can still be found on Klein Curaçao.
In the past some hurricanes hit Klein Curaçao and destroyed the first lighthouse in 1877. It was quickly decided to rebuild the lighthouse but this time in the middle of the island.
