Official release from the Curacao governors office: Corona English Updates

It seems pretty definative to me after all it was anounced by the Prime Minister in a press conference! "At the press conference on March 16 at 6:00 PM, Prime Minister Eugene Rhuggenaath announced that measures will be taken from tomorrow. The airspace of Curacao is closed, only residents of...

Latest 16-03-2020 As of today both Aruba and Bonaire have closed the borders to all European and US inbound travellers. Three confirmed coronavirus cases on Curacao with a further forty under observation, can't be long before Curacao adds US inbound passenger ban to the already existing ban on...

Be doing that dive myself in a few weeks hope they are still around :-)!

Last I heard it was Epsilon Dive Center Curacao.

I agree with you 100% with regards to Ocean Explorers, I've been diving with Jeff and Lu since 2013 and have always had great dives. I had tried a few other operators before I dived with them and was convinced the diving in Sint Maarten was not that great, but after diving with Ocean Explorers...

Dive Charter Curacao take their RIB up to Watamula, they launch from "Playa Santa Cruz" which is not far from Lagun :-)! https://www.divechartercuracao.com/east-point-west-point-trip-details

Looks like EZ Air will start flights between Curacao and Bonaire in December, lets hope they do and that they are more reliable than Insel which shouldn't be too hard :wink:! CuracaoNieuws | EZ Air gaat vliegen tussen Bonaire en Curaçao

I did, because I live and dive in Curacao, but I can imagine that people less familiar with the island may get a little confused :wink:!

If you are reasonably experienced divers you really don't need to pay for guided dives as most dives on Curacao are really easy. Just rent a car/SUV/truck, pick one or two sites for the days diving (depending on how many dives you want to do), if you have your own gear check to see if the sites...

I live in Curacao and I'm sorry to say that I don't think you will be able to get one here on the island, I had to order mine in the US. What end connectors do you need on the optical sync cord I have a spare one that you can borrow for the duration of the trip if it fits. The one I have is...

If you decide to do the East Side, which you should as in my opinion it's the best diving on Bonaire, I would recommend going with "Bonaire East Coast Diving" (Bonaire East Coast Diving - Unforgettable Scuba Dive Vacation Adventure), they run a RIB out of "Lac Bay" and it is so much easier than...

Insel Air is in trouble again! Uncertainty about InselAir’s future

I've dived both ends of Tobago and in my opinion the better end of the island for diving is Speyside, although it is in general more advanced diving. I dived with "Extra Divers" at the Speyside Inn, which I found to be fine. If you are looking for something more upmarket you could choose the...

When in Aruba I would forget the Antilla wreck, and instead try to arrange to dive the "Jane Sea" it's a deeper and therefore shorter dive but a far better dive, in fact in my opinion it is one of the best wreck dives I've done. One of my favourite reef dive on Aruba is "Harbour Reef" which is...

If you like all inclusive you could try Sunscape which is next to "Mambo Beach" and the "Sea Aquarium" just east of town. They have Ocean Encounters as the onsite dive operator and a short walk away at Marie Pompoen you have both "Twin Divers" and "The Dive Bus" that will take you diving...

Atlantis no longer offer apartments for rent, the best similar option close by would be "Scuba Lodge" but they are not cheap!

By far the best diving in Curacao is at the eastern point of the island but you will need a boat to get there! Try "Dive Charter Curacao" if you are up for an exciting days diving! Dive Charter Curacao | the most exhilarating scuba diving
