Come down for a visit and join the rest of us asking why dive and snorkel anywhere else?

• Curacao is a progressive Caribbean island claiming a modern airport with direct daily flights to the U.S. and The Netherlands, among others.
• Our world-class hotels are reasonably priced and most of them are located alongside or near the ocean.
• With year around water temperatures averaging 78-83°F (27°C) even at depth, the ocean can be enjoyed 365 days a year.
• Curacao sits outside the hurricane belt, so your vacation won't be cut short by those pesky storms.
• When it comes to visibility Curacao has some of the clearest water in the Caribbean, with average visibility running anywhere from 80-140 feet (25-40m) which will help you fully appreciate the 80 miles of pristine coral reef encircling the island, at depths ranging from 10 feet to well below 130 feet.
• There are 80 distinct dive sites (50 of them with mooring buoys), including wreck dives, cave dives, and stunning wall dives.
• The island is home to myriad tropical fish, sea turtles, seahorses, eels, and dolphins just waiting to be enjoyed and photographed.
• Curacao has some of the finest shore diving in the Caribbean; many of the best dive sites are just a short swim from the beach. In fact the readers of Scuba Diving Magazine recently rated Oswaldo's Drop Off the #3 shore dive location in the world.
• For those sites that are a little further away (and for those visitors looking to limit their exercise to stepping off the back of a boat), Curacao has numerous experienced dive operators providing daily two tank boat trips to all the best locations, and they are always happy to take snorkelers along for the day.
• There is something here for everyone, from calm bays with shallow reefs for snorkelers and beginning divers, to colorful coral walls with strong currents providing thrilling drift dives for more experienced divers.

Check out our list of 80 dive sites to see which ones appeal to you. When you’re ready to plan your trip, please let us know.
