Description
The introduction session will take approximately 4 hours. This is partly theory about diving, the dangers and how to dive safely. After this theory session you'll go to the tugboat dive spot or dive at Caracasbaai with the possibility of Turtles. This is open water, but the first part is defined as confined water. When everybody is comfortable, you'll descend one by one to work on equalization and to perform the exercises. After this is all done there is a dive tour to a maximum depth of 12 meters.

Exceptional service
This was my fourth time diving, I seem to get just as nervous as the first time. Hans is very knowledgeable and provided additional education, he is patient and kind, he was with me every step of the way, while allowing me to take my time as needed.
Thank you Hans!!
Operator response
Thanks for the review Andrea. If you're nervous we'll take all our time, also when you're not nervous. We don't like to hurry or put pressure on the diving. We want you to enjoy, and hope to see you back.

Highly recommended to beginners and experienced divers!
I started with a refresher dive with Bram and then completed my SSI Open Water Diver certification with Curios2Dive. Along the way we did a night dive, a fish ID dive, and several other great dives.
Bram and Hans are fantastic instructors! I felt safe at every moment, and everything was professionally and reliably organized from start to finish. It was clear how much care they put into every dive.
Another big plus: Curios2Dive is one of the few dive schools in Curaçao that is officially certified, and that's something you should really look out for when choosing where to dive.
I'll happily come back and can highly recommend Curios2Dive to beginners and experienced divers alike. Thank you both for an unforgettable experience! 🤿🐠

Thanks for the review Christine. A refresher and after that we did the advanced open water course. 5 different adventure dives. This enlarges your knowledge about diving and is also lots of fun. We hope to see you back for some more adventure dives.

Amazing!!
Incredible experience and lovely warm team! We didn’t have in our plans to go diving for the 1st time today, but we walk past the shop to ask for their availability and they immediately found a spot for us in the same day.
Operator response
Thanks for the review. Spontaniously you walked in the shop and your wish came through. Your first time diving became an incredible experience and we're glad we were part of that experience. We hope to see back for spotanous diving.

It's very worth it! It was...
It's very worth it! It was our first time diving with a cylinder, but Nic, our instructor made it very calm and easy. It ended up being even faster than expected - around 2h-2:30 with all the explanation. The dive must have been for 40 minutes.
Operator response
Obrigada pela avaliação, Erika. Que bom que tudo correu tão bem e de forma tão tranquila. Reservamos de 3 a 4 horas para a introdução, pois nem todos se sentem à vontade de imediato. Se estiverem, claro que aceleramos o processo. Para o mergulho, estimamos um tempo de 45 a 60 minutos, mas isso depende, naturalmente, do consumo de ar. E, claro, se você estiver se divertindo, o tempo passa voando. Esperamos vê-la novamente para mais mergulhos relaxantes.

Top experience!
Open Water diving course completed. Top guidance, Hans thinks well. The atmosphere is positive, relaxed, and personal. Outside the mandatory part, fantastic dives made around the dive school's location! Really recommended this 👌🏻

Bedankt voor de beoordeling. We proberen ieder een persoonlijk te begeleiden en dat betekent duiken op maat. Fijn ddat de duiken ook goed zijn bevallen, want daar doen we het om. We zien jullie graag terug voor nog meer fantastische duikem.

Thanks for the review Alec. The pleasure was likewise. It was all fun, the open water course, but also the lionfishhunting. We hope to see back for some more underwater adventures.

Relaxed vibe, nice dive
Relaxed vibe and good service. The reserved dive could easily be rescheduled after my buddy was not well. Wonderful dive at Director's Bay and beautiful, large turtle seen. Tonight a night dive in Caracas Bay.
Operator response
Bedankt voor de beoordeling Rob. Als het past met onze programmering verplaatsen we de duik. Zeker bij ziekte, waar daar kan niemand iets aan doen. Dat er dan nog 2 mooie duiken voor terugkomen is natuurlijk meegenomen. We zien je graag terug voor nog meer mooie duiken.
