A wonderful introductionary experience
Although the minor setbacks in the beginning, getting used to and end regulating everything, once you get the hang of it this introductionary dive is easily one of the best I've booked through this website. Flo was amazing in teaching and understanding issues and guiding through proper techniques and regulation. Being able to see a world that I only had access either behind your screen or through an aquarium at home or in an expo and see it from my own eyes was just mesmerizing .I 1000% recommend doing this if it's something you've been wanting to try for a while.
Operator response
Thank you so much for the great review! 🤿💙 We’re really happy you enjoyed your first dive and that Flo could help you feel comfortable and confident in the water.
There’s nothing quite like seeing the underwater world with your own eyes for the first time!
We’re so glad you had such a memorable experience and would recommend it to others. We hope this is just the beginning of many more dives! 😊

Patient, kind, genuine instructor!
The best intro dive! Yes it can be scary but you take a quick online course and then the instructor goes over the information slowly again. I was lucky to have a one-on-one with Mats - he was so patient with me and led me the entire dive. He helped me equalize during the dive (which was helpful bc it can be confusing!). So grateful for the experience. Highly recommend!
Operator response
Thank you so much for this lovely review! We’re so happy Mats could make your first diving experience feel comfortable, safe and fun!
Trying scuba for the first time can definitely feel a little scary, so we love hearing that his patience and guidance helped you enjoy the experience — especially those first few equalization attempts!
We hope this is just the beginning of your diving adventures. Thanks for recommending Scubaçao!

Do it no matter your skills and fears
This tour was the highlight of our stay in Curacao. Carolina was our instructor for the dive. She was amazing, patient and calm. We were my wife, myself and our 11 years old daughter. My wife found it a bit claustrophobic at first and Carolina helped her. She was super patient. Truly an amazing instructor and nice person. We were able to do a 51 min and 10 metres deep dive the 3 of us with Carolina. We saw beautiful fishes and corals. It was the perfect experience. Tia was also there from Turtles and Ray and she took pictures underwater for us. We just took the whole picture package at the end. Her pictures were great and since it was our first time scuba diving it was a great souvenir for us. We would recommend this tour with Scubaço a million times.

Awesome time
Wanted to introduce my girls to the sport as I'm already certified. We had an amazing experience throughout our time. JP met us right on time. He was very friendly and relaxed from the start. It was a short drive from the pickup near the cruise terminal to the shop. On the ride, he told us about the area and his history with diving. At the shop, he explained the basics extremely well to my girls. After the classroom instruction, it was time to drive to the beach. The gear we used was well-maintained and in great condition. We were joined by a professional photographer who dove with us. It was a great shore dive that lasted about 50 minutes. The girls had an amazing time, and I had a good time watching them enjoy themselves. We looked over the pics, and I did buy a package, but there was no pressure to get anything, which I appreciated. If I ever make it back down to Curaçao, I know who I'm diving with again.

Awesome time
I'm a diver and wanted to introduce my kids to the sport. JP did an excellent job explaining the basics of diving to my girls and was a wonderful guide. We had a great local dive, and he checked on them often and did a great job. My girls had an amazing time and loved every minute of it.
