“Neptune’s Reef” is just in front of All West Apartments, this easily accessible dive site offers a nice steep wall and a big opportunity to see turtles. These can normally be found at the end of the fisherman’s pier chomping away on discarded fish. In the shallows you will find old V6 engine blocks used by the local fishermen to anchor their boats; a perfect habitat for juveniles, all types of moray eels and lobsters. Several seahorses and frog fish have been spotted here as well…

Do not forget to pay a visit to our statue of King Neptune placed just in front of the pier at 30’ at the beginning of 1997.

This Fokker Fairchild 27 once flew regularly for Antillean Airlines as an island hopper between the ABC Islands, Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao, and afterward came to rest at the premises of Curacao’s International Airport Hato. In 2006 the Fire Department donated the airplane to All West Apartments & Diving and Go West Diving to create a new diving attraction at the west end of the island. The plane lies now on a sandy patch surrounded by stunning hard coral formations. Regularly a drift dive that can finish around the point of Watamula where schools of barracuda can be found. Turtles, ocean trigger fish, lobster, porcupine fish and green morays plus large schools of bogas are also seen here.

Watamula derives its name from the Dutch word “Water Mollen” (Water Mill); name of the bordering National Park.

Its pristine hard coral formations make this one of the top dive sites of the island. On either side of the hard coral field lay two sandy patches full of giant barrel sponges and soft corals. Occasionally strong currents make for a great drift dive.

Regular sightings of ocean triggerfish, chubbs, porcupine fish, bogas and rays.

Between Klein Knip and Playa Jeremi we discovered a little bit of “Paradise”! This dive site is reachable by boat only and as far as we know, we’re the only center diving there. A great variety of big hard coral colonies and colorful sponges are found here and is home to many barracuda, green morays and lobsters.

Along the shoreline there is also a small cave that can be accessed on calm days where you will find large schools of glassy sweepers, numerous lobsters and crabs.

Named for the once in abundance of black corals found here, you can still find pieces of the Black Corals here. But even without the sight of these rare corals, this dive site remains on our schedule as one of the best boat dive sites. The reef is often covered in large amount of fish schools, and the position next to Hell’s Corner brings in currents that is appreciated by Barracuda’s hunting for their pray.

Deep water currents provide this dive site with excellent visibility and make it a good site to spot some larger marine life. Probably the best chance to spot seahorses as well as eagle rays. Beautiful sandy channels and steep topography gives this dive site a unique feel, almost like floating above a steep skiing slope! Eagle rays, turtles, Barracuda and porcupine fish are regularly spotted here. One of our top dive choices.

This expansive area of coral flats is named for the striking mushroom shaped coral formations.

This is one of the top dive sites of Curacao and it is always written up in Diving Magazines! It is a great place to practice your navigation while spotting the vibrant reef life. Most life is found around the 40ft/12m to 50ft/14m mark where gigantic mountainous star coral formations are still evident and attract giant moray eels, porcupine fish, barracuda and lobster.

This unspoiled reef lies just 100 yards offshore from a postcard perfect, little sandy beach tucked beneath the cliffs. The property inland belongs to Land House San Nicolas.  The beach and dive site are named after Hulu, an escaped slave who lived out his final years as a free man in the rugged hills of Banda Abao, frequenting this beach to fish.

Boca Hulu is a fairly steep wall with healthy stony coral formations and it is here that you start to spot a variety of colorful soft corals.

This site derives its name from the abundance of colorful sponges found there. Examples include orange elephant ear sponges, purple stove pipe sponges, barrel, tube, rope and vase varieties. There is much more than just sponges to this site though as the currents that can move through here keep the coral healthy and attract large fish varieties.

(35’-85’, from boat only)

Named after the coastal village of Lagun, this site offers a lot of diversity in both coral and marine life as well as a small cave for those who dare. We start on a sandy plateau and then slowly reach the reef wall which houses some of the larger coral heads on the island. One of the best spots to find turtles!! Diving Lagun by boat will always bring you elsewhere than the shore entrance.

Also known as Dwayne’s Release, this dive site can attract some currents, so it occasionally becomes a comfortable drift dive (typically we don’t experience real strong currents on our boat dives). Attractive hard corals are mixed in with beautiful soft corals which make nice habitats for seahorses and slender file fish. Towards the end of your dive, there is no need to hang mid-water to complete your safety stop. The beautiful shallow area will keep you entertained for the full length of the dive.

More of a snorkel site than a dive site, this well hidden cave gets its name from the dazzling blue color of the water when viewed from inside. Typically filled with many glassy sweepers, there is more than just stunning rock formations. Look out for lobster colonies next to the underwater pinnacle. The entrance is covered with coral patches and a short swim brings you to the reef.

Diving Mushroom Forest or Sponge Forest can be started from the Blue Room

Cave of Love derives its name from a tragic mythological love story. The name Cave of Love refers to a dramatic love myth. Legend has it that two lovers used to meet under the rocky precipice that looms above the dive site until the young man was lost at sea. In despair, his sweetheart threw herself off the rock.

The site is best enjoyed going south (when possible) in the direction of Kleine Knip over a reef full of beautiful hard and soft corals. Reef fish are abundant. The occasional sand chute cuts along the reef are an excellent habitat for rays!

Located next to Sunset Waters, visiting Mako’s Mountain comes with a longer, but well-worth, boat ride! About 45 minutes away from Playa Kalki we find our furthest located dive site that due to it’s position attracts predatory Groupers and Barracuda’s, and there are tales of shark sightings here. The dive site can be enjoyed on the shallow plateau as well as on the steep reef drifting towards Hell’s Corner.
