Diving
A wonderland of diving
Divers and snorkelers never seem to be able to stop talking about the beauty of Curaçao’s underwater world. Let us assure you – this is with good reason, because we like to think there is no place in the world offering such great shore dives or opportunity to enjoy the beauty of sea’s nature while snorkeling.
Diving on Curacao
In contrast to most other holiday regions you are able to dive independently on Curacao. In connection with a rental car and your equipment you can enjoy unique diving freedom. All dive spots are marked on available road maps. A great number of diving areas along the southern coast are easy to access. Big stones painted in red and white with diver’s flag, name or number of the place, will show you where to leave the mainroad and lead you to the beaches.
There are managed diving places, indeed, there you are mostly not alone and in some Locations entry is also to be paid, but, nevertheless, you can expect a well developed street up to the beach, a snackbar, toilets, showers, washbasins for the equipment and so on. The remaining places are mostly as easy to reach, if the worst comes to the worst, with some off-road fun. Sometimes small fees are also required for the passage by private properties. As reward you mostly have the bays almost for yourself what admits, however, definitely no conclusion on the quality. You will have trouble to find a beach on Curacao which one could call full, even at touristic rush hours. Accustoms once to such relations, Egypt even in winter seems overcrowded.
