Sheltered Southern Coast and Diverse Marine Life
The sheltered southern coast of Curaçao is rich in coral, making it suitable for divers of all levels. Positioned on the outer fringes of the Hurricane Belt, the popular dive sites offer little in the way of adverse conditions. Divers and snorkelers can’t stop talking about the beauty of scuba diving in Curaçao, and with good reason.
