About This Dive Spot

Eel Valley is accessible only by boat and is situated near a golf course. Divers begin their exploration on sandy bottom before swimming towards the wall, where the reef is located. While historically known for its abundance of eels, sightings have diminished over time. The sandy area may occasionally host rays, and divers can observe typical marine life associated with the reefs of Curacao.
