★★★★☆ Tugboat

★★★★★ Superior Producer (Wreck)
Superior Producer is rated as one of the best wreck dives in the Caribbean, located between Double Reef and the entrance to St. Annabaai, this cargo ship sits upright on a sandy bottom at 30 m / 100 ft. The ship sank in 1977 and is covered with coral and sponges and has an openly accessible cargo bay.
★★★★☆ Double Reef
The first reef slopes down to about 14m / 46ft where it becomes a sandy bottom. From there you can see the second reef. The second reef starts around 18m / 60ft and drops down to 30 m/ 100ft and deeper.
★★★★☆ Marie Pampoen
A calm, easy shore dive where you enter the water from a small harbor. 20-30 meters out from the harbor you will find an interesting artificial reef made from dumped cars, cranes, and more scraps. Sometimes large tarpon hang around here.
★★★★☆ Playa Kalki / Alice in Wonderland
Playa Kalki with the dive site “Alice in Wonderland“ is the most north-western dive site which is possible from shore. A beautiful reef runs parallel to the beach with large coral formations. The best diving depth is between 5-20m.Parking, restaurant, toilets and diving school are on site.
★★★★★ Playa Lagun
Located on the northwest end of Curacao, Playa Lagun is a narrow cove surrounded by rocky cliffs and is an excellent shore dive site. It is known as one of the best snorkel spots on the island with a variety of Marine life. For divers it offers multiple routes on the outer reef and inner reef.
★★★★☆ Jan Thiel baai
This bay is located at a busy beach so feel free to bring the family! Entering the water is easy and under water you will find a wreck and a platform, lots of sandy bottom up to a depth of 15m.
★★★★☆ Water Factory / Fisherman’s Wharf
In front of the old water factory lies this gorgeous healthy shallow coral reef. There are lots of different hard corals and large barrel sponges and orange elephant ear sponges with a shallow steep wall just at the end of the coral reef.
★★★★☆ Director's Bay
Director’s Bay is a historical spot located between the famous Tugboat Reef and Small Wall dive sites. Up until 1985 this beach was privately owned by the Directors of the Royal Dutch Shell Group and the Dutch Royal family and was not accessible to the public. Now it’s a great shore diving location.
★★★★☆ Porto Mari
A beautiful house reef great for snorkelers to advanced divers. This site is technically a double reef with the first reef starting close to the beach and the second reef running out into the deep with a valley of sand running in between them. Easily accessible from shore.
★★★★☆ Playa Grandi / Playa Piscado
Playa Piskado, also called Playa Grandi, is a crowd puller. Turtles can be found on the top of the reef and near the small pier, where they get the leftovers of the fishermen to eat. The beautiful reef is further out and at 8 meters depth you can find a statue of the sea god Neptune.
★★★★☆ Snake Bay
This site is an easy entrance on the right-hand side of the pier, directly under the car park. Sandy bottom with the coral reef starting at 5 m /15 ft and the drop off at 10 m / 30 ft. At 35 m /115 ft the reef turns into a sandy bottom again.
★★★★☆ Cornelius Bay
Very nice dive to the left of the Sea Aquarium. Can be hard to reach, however, with a bit of a climb. When entering from shore watch out for the shallow elkhorn coral formations.
★★★★☆ Playa Jeremi
Playa Jeremi is a small beach sandwiched between two mighty cliffs. The cove is a sandy plateau which slowly changes into a beautiful coral garden. Divers should swim out until just before the blue line. The reef is a slope that you can follow in a northerly or southerly direction.
★★★★☆ Parasasa Beach / Crash Site
In 1942 the USS Erie was torpedoed in this area and put ashore. From the ship a Kingfisher plane was thrown overboard and you can still find some wreckage of the plane as well as some parts of the Erie here. The ship itself is not here and was sunk several miles of the coast.
