FAQ
for try dives in Curaçao
Do you have questions about safety, what your first discovery dive involves or accessibility for anxious individuals? Check out our special beginners’ FAQ and discover how we organise our private introductory dives with complete peace of mind.
What is the best activity for a beginner who wants to discover Curaçao’s underwater world?
It all depends on what interests you most.
If you dream of observing sea turtles in an ethical and respectful way, our Turtle Spotter experience is an excellent choice. For those who want to discover something truly unique underwater, the Mini Wreck Explorer experience lets you visit a historic wreck site on your very first dive.
If you are passionate about the environment, the Coral Nubbin introductory dive combines your first underwater experience with an introduction to citizen science and coral conservation.
And if you would rather stay dry or enjoy the island from the water’s surface, our private boat trips on Spanish Water offer a tailor-made and relaxing experience, including the option of a beautiful sunset cruise.
Each experience is fully private, allowing us to adapt the pace and guidance to your comfort level and interests.
I have never been scuba diving and I feel a little nervous. How do you manage safety and stress?
Feeling anxious is completely normal, and that is precisely why we operate exclusively in a 100% private format. Unlike large tourist operations, you will be alone or with your family and friends, accompanied by your dedicated French- or English-speaking instructor.
We take all the time needed for the briefing at the water’s edge and proceed at a pace that feels comfortable for you. All of our introductory dives are conducted from the shore (shore dives), which means entering the water where you can stand comfortably. There is no rush, no pressure, and no expectation to keep up with a group.
Our goal is to create a calm, reassuring, and enjoyable first diving experience, allowing you to build confidence step by step while discovering Curaçao’s underwater world in complete safety.
Do you need any special skills or swimming ability to take part in your private excursions?
No diving certification or previous scuba experience is required for our introductory dives. The only requirement for underwater activities is that you feel comfortable in the water and have basic swimming ability.
For our private boat excursions and cruises, participation is even easier and open to everyone, including families with young children and people who have never been on a boat before. Thanks to the stability and comfort of our vessel, these experiences are accessible to guests of all ages and experience levels.
What makes your beginner experiences different from traditional dive centres in Curaçao?
Our philosophy is built around sustainable, immersive, and ocean-friendly tourism. More than just an introductory dive, each experience incorporates an eco-responsible approach, whether through strict adherence to sea turtle observation guidelines or participation in scientific monitoring of local coral nurseries.
In addition, our private format eliminates the typical “rush” often associated with large dive operations. We conduct only one activity per day, allowing you to enjoy the experience at a relaxed pace with no time pressure.
High-quality equipment, refreshments, and educational briefings about Curaçao’s marine biodiversity are always included, helping you gain a deeper understanding of the ecosystem while enjoying a memorable and personalised adventure.
