More than 100 divers from all over the world came together last week on Curaçao to participate in the re-formatted Annual Curaçao International Diving Festival after a ten year hiatus.

The enthusiastic driving force behind this successful renewed attention for Curaçao as a diving destination was Bryan Horne who humbly admits that he is “proud to lead the return of Curacao Dive Festival that has signaled an unprecedented collaboration for sustainable tourism, ocean conservation and a union of the Curacao tourism stakeholders that includes a long list of dedicated industry sponsors!”

Special thanks to all of the sponsors and participants!!
