Bahia Diving

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.

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.

A boat dive, Mushroom Forest is one of the most famous dive sites in Curaçao, where hard coral formations have grown and eroded into large mushroom-shaped corals.

Kleine Knip is named after the beach and Landhuis Knip. It is a beautiful beach so the whole family can join! Before you get to the wall you first have to bridge a piece of sand. The wall itself is beautiful up to about 20 meters.

Discover what is now one of the coolest and most talked about experiences in the entire Caribbean. Located next to Mushroom Forest at the end of a one kilometer stretch of land in the Santa Cruz area of Banda Abou, you will find a small opening at water level that could be passed by easily without thinking too much about it. ​This is the perfect place for off-gassing between dives or a snorkel trip and it is located next to Mushroom Forest. But the story of the Blue Room begins not as a dive site. It originally appealed to antsy divers as a perfect place to go off-gas between scuba forays into the nearby Mushroom Forest and is easily explored by snorkelers and once you duck under the narrow opening, the small cavern opens-up to an air-filled chamber, complete with tiny bats. Only about 20-feet deep, it was a perfect jaunt between dives, and a good breath could take almost anyone to the bottom. ​Once you start to talk about light, magic, and wonder – soon you’ve got professional photographers asking about it. This was the moment that a tiny, air-filled chamber mostly enjoyed by snorkelers between dives, went from a West End novelty to a West End must-dive. Underwater photographers discovered the Blue Room. The first famous name to capture the Blue Room was world acclaimed wildlife photographer Amos Nachoum back in 2006 while on a photo expedition with then Sport Diver Editor, Ty Sawyer. Amos Nachoum is a light wrangler and the Blue Room was nirvana for the Photographer, Explorer, and Conservationist. No big animals, but big experience in an intimate space. And, if you ask him today, he’ll list the Blue Room among his favorite dive experiences in the Caribbean, not just Curaçao. He described the light in the Blue Room as “perfect” according to Ty. 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 is an essential Curaçao experience. And, that light, unforgettable.

Playa Forti is famous for the nice view. A staircase leads to the beach and there is a normal shore entrance. The reef a little further out has beautiful corals and rock formations. You can also find many sea creatures along the cliff and discover a lot.
