About Caracasbaai
Caracasbaai is Curaçao's easy shore-entry beach dive: a public bay with coarse sand and pebbles, calm water, and a shallow reef inside the underwater park. The site works well for new divers and snorkelers who want a relaxed entry, a short reef swim, and plenty of color from corals, sponges, and reef fish. It is a better pick for a calm day than a rough one, and the nearby beach restaurants make it easy to turn the dive into a simple half-day.
