Curacao Dive Site Guide | The Blue Room | Dive Curacao - Dutch Caribbean
The Blue Room Curacao - An Essential Curaçao Experience
No big animals, but big experience in an intimate space. The Blue Room is a favorite dive & snorkel experiences in the Caribbean, not just Curaçao. The light in the Blue Room as “perfect.”
Once people started to regularly explore the Blue Room with scuba tanks they discovered more than just the ethereal light. They found surfaces covered by orange cup coral, filled with micro wonders. And then they saw that images of the blue were complemented by a flamboyant orange. Lurking in the shadows year-round you’ll find copper sweepers, a small gold-bronze fish that looks like it’s swimming upside down. And, in the late days of August through September, the Blue Room fills with silversides, which light up the cavern as they move and flow like mercury. Now, more than just an afterthought, the Blue Room has become an essential Curaçao experience. And, that light… unforgettable.

Pluses:
Beautiful location, property and view from the hotel to the beach. Extensive options at the breakfast buffet. Clean, spacious room with a beautiful sea view! It was amazing!
The breakfast buffet was delicious, especially the scrambled eggs, bacon and pork sausage. Vast variety of foods, delicious fruits, yoghurts, etc. The pool could have used a little less chlorine, but the ocean behind it was clearly worth it.
Wonderful sunset viewing and snorkeling right off the hotel sight.
Minuses:
Wasn't a younger crowd vibe, felt more like a business retreat for an older crowd
Diving the Superior Producer | GoPro HD+ | Willemstad, Curaçao
Music in this video: SAIL - Awolnation.
On the 26th of September 2016, I made a dive on the wreckage of the Superior Producer. This ship sunk almost 40 years ago in 1977 a bit off coast near Willemstad, Curacao. It was overloaded with jeans and whiskey and it started sinking in the harbour of Willemstad.
They decided to drag it outside of the harbour before it touched the ground at 30 meters of depth. A day later all cargo was taken by locals and devided under them.
Nowadays it is known as one of the most beautiful wreckages of the caribbean. But it is threaten by the proposed construction of the second Mega Pier and will probably be lost in the near future...
I saw a lot of big Tarpons in and around the wreckage, saw a few Baracuda's and entered the hold, the staff room and the cockpit.
It was the most awesome dive of my whole trip to Curaçao and I have to give a special thanks to Chris Joris, my buddy for this dive and Scuba Do Diving for all the good care.

Curacao Dive Site Guide | Playa Piskado - Playa Grandi | Dive Curaçao
Playa Piskado - Neptunes Reef
Neptunes Reef is just in front of All West Apartments & Diving, 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 fishermans 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 frogfishes 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.
TRAVEL | ENJOY | RESPECT and PLEASE do not FEED the WILDLIFE!
For generations, the local fishermen of Curacao have been cleaning and selling fish at this particular beach which is also a Fisherman’s Wharf. These daily activities resulted in a group of sea turtles feeding on the remains of the fish and becoming residents at the beach. Nowadays, Playa Piskadó is a popular spot for our island’s visitors and snorkeling ‘with’ the turtles is in high demand. Before you get in the water we would like to invite you to first read the signs and information made available at the beach by Sea Turtle Conservation Curacao.
Please respect our sea turtles and our local fishermen at Playa Piskadó. Do not touch nor feed the turtles, don’t chase after them but respect their natural environment and help us conserve this beautiful and unique experience we’ve been blessed with.
FUNDAMENTAL LINK IN MARINE ECOSYSTEMS - Sea turtles are a fundamental link in marine ecosystems. They help maintain the health of sea grass beds and coral reefs that benefit commercially valuable species such as shrimp, lobster and tuna. Sea turtles are the live representatives of a group of reptiles that have existed on Earth and traveled our seas for the last 100 million years. Turtles have major cultural significance and tourism value. Our Oceans - Our Future - Our Responsibility

Superior Producer Dive Curacao with Goby-divers.com
in 1978 just outside the busy port of Willemstad, off the island of Curacao Superior Producer was sank filled with clothes and drinks, headed for Venezuela for the Christmas shopping season. It was overloaded and left against the advice of its captain. The cargo shifted in the oceans swells and quickly sank on a even keel.
He sits on a sand plateau 60m/196 from the shore, at a depth of 32 m/105ft.
After all these years on the bottom of the ocean he has been transformed full of vivid corals, tube sponges, you can see barracudas and tarpons swimming around.
The marine life fully appreciate the impact this wreck has on the undersea environment.
2015 the coolest wreck in Curacao will turn in to a Block of Concrete for construction of a Mega Pier for cruise ships !!

Underwater Curaçao: A Spectacular and Beautiful Underwater View
Underwater Curaçao: A Spectacular and Truly Beautiful View from Underwater - GoPro
It belonged to the Amerindians, was found by the Spanish, then conquered by the Dutch and populated by successive waves of Africans, Sephardic Jews and Indonesians, among others. Just 35 miles north of Venezuela, Curaçao is an incredible melting pot, so much so that it has its own language, Papiamentu. Tall, narrow buildings painted in Easter egg colors crowd the shores of Sint Annabai (St. Anna Bay), which divides the original colonial side of the capital, Willemstad — called Punda — from the newer side, called Otrobanda (literally, the other side). The St. Emma Bridge, which is on pontoons and swings open to admit cruise ships, connects the two sides, so a short walk takes you from the middle of Punda to the center of Otrobanda. Outside of the city, the landscape is dry and arid, with the spiky silhouettes of kadushi cacti serrating the desolate countryside.
The beaches of Curaçao are spectacular, but the best beach in Curaçao isn't on the island; that beach is eight miles offshore on Klein Curaçao. Before you arrive, book a half-day charter with Adrenaline Sports aboard their private yacht. They can arrange whatever suits you — a beachside picnic, snorkeling, fishing, sunbathing, water toys — and deliver you back to Willemstad in plenty of time to re-embark.
If cruising at the surface isn't enough, Substation Curaçao offers one of the few deep dives in the Caribbean. Unlike the Atlantis Submarines that descend a hundred feet, the Curasub vehicle drops down a thousand feet for a close-up view of the island's steep walls. View big basket sponges, giant sea fans and critters.
