I don't want to put a whole trip report ... but I did a LOT of what tkaelin recommended in his trip report fr Jan. We stayed at Marazul condos and dove with Go West ( GREAT ). We rented a truck and did only shore diving. Different from Bonaire which we were used to but great nonetheless. Westpunt is the area to stay in. Low key, non-touristy, remote, scenic. Really look forward to going back. We had great conditions but were told the week before was NOT, and they had cancelled some discover scuba diving, viz was bad etc... Highlights included diving at Sunset Waters, a now empty and abandoned resort with a spectacular beach that had NO ONE on it, Playa Piscado, Porto Marie... (our dives were awesome) dining - SOL, Trio Penotti, Landuis Misje, and Blue View Sunny Terrace (at Playa Forti)... Curacao (Westpunt) rocks for shore diving, can't wait to do boat dives next time.
Almost forgot, we did buy the Curacao diving book at Go West; includes details on all dive sites, not just shore, that was extremely helpful ( you can get it on Amazon in advance slightly cheaper if you think ahead)
