I have spent more time and money than I care to admit vacationing in the Caribbean. It’s become one of my most favorite destinations on the planet. Sometimes I only save up enough to visit for the weekend, but I always have an incredible time. I’ve visited many different spots in the Caribbeans, but none of them can quite compare to the island of Curacao.
One of the main reasons I love Curacao so much, aside from the friendly locals and sublime weather, is the shore diving experience that they offer. Sure, you can enjoy diving at a number of Caribbean islands. But the scenery and the wildlife near Curacao are some of the best. The experience really stands out in comparison to shore diving at any of the other nearby islands.
In part, that’s thanks to The Dive Bus, which is a local company that offers guided shore diving adventures. Mark and Suzy spent their lives diving in these waters and know it better than anyone else. They offer diving adventures that are based on the concept of fun This is often lost when diving with the big crowds that more well-known companies attract.
In summary, the Caribbeans are incredible and Curacao is their crown jewel. There’s a lot to do when you visit, but you cannot leave without scuba diving at least once. And there’s no better way to enjoy the waters than with a guided adventure from the Dive Bus.
