Guided Scuba Diving in Scubaçao: 2-Tank Certified Dives

Wrecks, drop-offs and coral reefs in one morning

Guided scuba diving in Scubaçao for certified divers only, with two tanks, pickup from your hotel, and small-group instruction. You choose the site (wrecks and steep drop-offs on the eastern side or healthy coral reefs in the west), and the guide leads you through it while watching your technique and pointing out marine life. Underwater photos are included at no extra charge.

The experience

The dive starts with a pickup in a four-seat double cabin truck that takes you to any shore-accessible site on the island. Once in the water, you're diving two tanks with an experienced guide who has spent time learning the reefs, the wrecks and the marine life around them. Small groups mean personal attention: the guide watches your technique and helps you become a better diver while you're exploring, not after. If conditions allow it, the guide brings an underwater camera and shoots photos of you diving. You can also bring your own camera or GoPro.

The choice of site depends on what you want to see and what the conditions allow. The eastern side has steep drop-offs and wrecks. The west has healthy, lush coral reefs. Either way, you're diving with someone who knows what lives there and where to find it. The whole experience runs about five hours from pickup to drop-off, and the guide speaks English, Spanish or Dutch.
