About Car Pile 59Jb

Car Pile 59Jb is a shore-access artificial reef in Curaçao built from cars, trucks, a barge, and construction debris that step down into deeper water. The site drops fast from the beach and rewards careful depth control, so it suits divers who are comfortable moving slowly through a wreck field. Barracuda, tarpon, lionfish, morays and other reef fish make it more than just a novelty site.
