In front of Breezes Curacao Resort Spa & Casino, at about 85 feet, is a
famous dive site called the Car Pile, where cars, trucks, and earth moving
equipment were placed to create an added dimension to the reef area and special
hiding places for sea life.
This is a perfect site for a night dive, although a first visit during the day
is advised, so you know what to expect. Due to the reef proximity to shore, the
variety of sea life and display of landscapes makes diving in Curacao a special
experience.
Balmy Water, between 24°C and 27°C (75°F and 81°F); excellent visibility
(100ft) and the presence of a mild current.
At Breezes Curacao Resort Spa & Casino one shore dive per day is included
in an underwater park, adjacent to the resort. Additional shore dives, boat
dives, night dives and certification courses are available at an extra charge.
We will happily provide all necessary Scuba gear, but you're free to bring your
own equipment. If you are qualified, bring an international "C" card
or a certificate from an internationally recognized dive school. If not, you
will have to participate in a swimming skills assessment. After passing, you
will need a current Diving Medical Certificate or obtain one from a local
physician.
Special Event- Come to Curacao every September and October to view the Coral
Spawning! This miracle of coral reef reproduction only happens in September and
October one week after the full moon. Witness several types of coral, urchins
and brittle stars release their eggs to be fertilized in the open waters around
the reef.
