Took the family to Curacao the end of March /beginning od April. We stayed at the Marriott, it was wonderful. The food was OK, but not great, my advice eat out. We spent 4 days diving with Mark and Suzy at the Dive Bus, they picked us up from the Marriott each day . We can not say enough great things about them, during the course of time with them we encountered a few equipment problems which they helped us out with. My wife and kids had not been diving in well over a year and wanted to take the refresher course. At the last minute I decided to join in. Claire did a great job with the refresher and the dive on their house reef Pierbaai Reef was excelent 80+ ft vis and great marine life. The next next day we had the pleasure of diving with Jason again on Pierbaai Reef also an excelent dive awesome visibility. the next day we took a Yellow Jeep off road tour which was also an excelent experience, we highly recommend it, just remember to wear clothes that you don't plan on wearing again because you will get dusty during the jeep tour. After a nice day touring the topside of the island it was time to get back underwater. Mark and Jason picked us up from the Marriott and we headed off to Porto Mari. The two dives we did here have to have been some of the best dives of my life. The corals and fish were outstanding. For our last day of diving we dove Directors bay for the first dive. Here too great vis and fish life. For the second dive we started at Directors bay and made our way over to the Tugboat and ended our dive there.
As far as I'm concerned there is no reason to set foot on a boat to dive Curacao. The Dive Bus is great operation and I highly, highly recommend them. Diving with Mark and Suzy makes you feel like you have friends on island.
This was our second trip to Curacao and it was much better than our first. It definitely will not be our last.
