    Curacao's best shore dives ?

    Hi Tjack, personally I think Director's bay is worth the drive. The roads were very rough to get there, though. I haven't spoken to anyone who has gone diving at Boca Tabla. There's video on the internet, though, so some dive groups must go there. It would be a very challenging entry, if...

    Curacao's best shore dives ?

    A couple of details: Playa Grandi - this is the same reef as All West - there are stairs to the beach from the apartments (not accessible if you aren't staying there). The fisherman's dock is about 10 yards from the apartments on the beach, but by road it's further. There is parking, and very...

    anyone know dive rates for All West divers?

    +1 for don't miss Watamula. Director's Bay - Left side is a dramatic wall, right side is more of a ski slope, but lovely too. The access road is a little bumpy, but there was parking security when we were there. Also a small flight of stairs (maybe 8 steps) to access the beach. My...

    Which dives should I sign up for on Curacao?

    Personally, I would spend more time diving at the west end of the island. Don't miss Watamula (boat dive), alice in wonderland, and the house reef at All West (turtles!). I also like Porto Mari, Lagun, Klein Knip. It's been said there has been some issues with car break ins at Klein Knip, but...

    Curacao dive operator recommendation for a beginner and a newbie?

    We have stayed at the Breezes 3 times, most recently in April of this year. I would personally dive with the Dive Bus. It is about 25 yards from the Breezes hotel, but of course they will pick you up for your dive. It’s not that I didn’t like Ocean Encounters (onsite at the...

    BBM (blackberry message) flags

    Hi All, Does anyone know if there is a code to set a scuba flag on my BlackBerry profile for sending BBM's? I have found country flags, just curious if there is a scuba flag.

    Curacao - 2 divers, 2 young kids in tow...where to stay?/or should we go elsewhere?

    We have stayed at the Breezes several times, and used the kids club when our kids were younger. We all really enjoyed it, and lots for the kids to do - rock wall climbing, circus school etc. Our kids were 10 & 8 when we first went. We only had positive experiences at the Breezes on all 3...
