==History== Plans to create the harbour began in 1994. The harbour at Oranjestad was large enough, however the cargo ships had to share the port with cruise ships which often caused problems. The first priority was to move the container terminal. Work began in 2011, and the move was completed in 2015. On 12 April 2016, the Barcadera harbour was officially opened by Prime minister Mike Eman.
