Why dive here
With 310+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, octopuses, orcas, sea turtles and sperm whales - Cas Abao offers some of Curaçao Southeast's richest reef diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest September, October, November.
Haddington Reefs, up in the Pacific Northwest, offers a classic cold-water dive. We're talking kelp forests and rocky slopes, not tropical corals, but there's a real beauty to it. Look for the Daubed Shanny peeking out from crevices and keep an eye on the bigger picture for passing Chinook and even Orcas if you’re incredibly lucky. It’s a site for divers who appreciate the rugged charm of temperate waters and don't mind a bit of chill. The Dungeness Crab and Sunflower Stars are plentiful, and it’s always fun to spot a Spotted Ratfish gliding by.
