Queen Emma Pontoon Bridge

Also known as the“ Swinging Old Lady,” Queen Emma is a pedestrian floating bridge which connects the two halves of Willemstad on either side of the St. Anna Bay. Visitors often enjoy a meal as they watch the bridge open up to let ships past, especially at night when it is lit up. If you get caught on the wrong side when the bridge is open, a free ferry service will take you back across.
