Great experience - We had a wonderful time. Pick up and drop off from the cruise ship was smooth and easy. Fitted us perfectly with gear and off shore diving we went! Our dive master was knowledgeable and extremely helpful. We did 2 very different dives, each were fantastic! We even saw seahorses and a turtle!

Had a great time Scuba diving in Curaçao. - Excellent….for so many reasons. I had booked a two tank private dive. We arrived at the Cruise ship port and were picked up precisely at the time and location designated by Soul Divers in their email communications. Ylva was our dive master, she provided all the needed equipment and two memorable dives. We enjoyed the laid-back and calm atmosphere, the excellent dive instructions and the safety information. We saw puffer fish, trumpet fish, angel fish, eels, turtle, and most importantly we found two seahorses. Would most definitely recommend them to family and friends.

One of the best, if not favorite, family diving experiences - Working with Soul Divers was a positive experience and we would not hesitate to do it again. Our family of 3 (2 adults/1 teen) certified divers were on a cruise wanting to spend a day diving in Curacao and it ended up a lovely day to remember. We were not booking through the ship so timing for pick up and return was most prudent and they were able to get us to and from with plenty of time to spare such that we were even able to be dropped closer to downtown for us to be able to to walk back to see the island before arriving at the cruise port. It helped that communication from the get-go was prompt and professional and continued through to the day of diving that it put our minds at ease booking outside a cruise excursion. On the day of the dive, weather was perfect (hot) and pick up from the port first thing was easy with directions provided of where to meet just outside the ship port gates. We were then driven from the port, to each dive site, and back. Our dive master, Ylva, was professional, yet fun, and very knowledgeable. All equipment was provided in good working order based on prior submission of personal info and even provided dive computers which was a nice touch as we have never been offered them before. Also, first time we were able to use metric dive equipment so that was a different touch. Nice light snacks and water were also available between dives (if it weren't for the wildlife underwater, the snacks would have been our teen's favorite part!) Ylva provided a great dive plan overview for each dive, including those related to safety, time underwater and what we could expect to see. She was clearly knowledgeable of the sites she was taking us around to. As our teen's first time diving certified, she took the extra time to ensure they were comfortable, with extra attention underwater. 1st dive was a trek to get in water with a coral based shore and some surf to deal with getting in but once underwater all was calm and ended up a nice leisurely swim along a wall. We only went down 60 ft but it did go much further. 2nd dive was an easy entry from a sandy beach but a bit more strenuous swim with a bit of a current of 40 ft but we just took our time. Nothing we had not experienced at times elsewhere really. Both sites provided plentiful reef and sea life (octopus, moray, turtles, with your standard trunk fish, parrot fish, stone fish, trumpet fish, and a whole slew of others we had not seen before). All in all, have dove from several Carribean islands for comparison with this being our first in Curacao and it ended up a really good experience. We are planning to go back to Curacao in the near future and are hoping to dive with Soul Divers again, perhaps at some new sites, soon! Highly recommend.

Great dive experience - We had a fantastic 2-tank dive with Ylva and our family of 4. She was very accommodating to our daughter, who was having some ear issues while equalizing, and helped her figure it out. The 2 dives we did were great, relaxed shored dives. We will definitely call her again next time.

Excellent diving experience - We had a wonderful day diving with Ylva in Curaçao! She was an attentive and safe guide who showed us 2 beautiful reefs on the Eastern side of the island. Gilbert the boat Captain was excellent. They also provided a delicious lunch during the surface interval. Highly recommend!

Our first time in Curacao, a wonderful dive experience! - Ylva was our Dive Master and she was awesome! She picked us up at our hotel, drove us to our dive location and the entire way, she told us about herself, how and why she came into the business. She brought all the equipment that we needed, everything was in top quality condition, helped us set things up and assisted getting us down to the entry location safely. While in the water, we felt very safe with her, she pointed out all the cool underwater life that we were hoping to see, including even a random line Seahorse hanging out in the sand beside the coral! We saw puffer fish, trumpet fish, angel fish, butterfly fish, drum fish, and trunk fish. Afterwards, we reviewed her fish of Curacao card so that we could document what we saw on our dive logs. On the way back to the hotel, Ylva even drove us on a tour of downtown Willemstad and recommended places to go for dinner. What a great tour guide underwater AND on dry land! Thank you for providing us with such a wonderful and interesting day! I would highly recommend Soul-Divers for your diving experience!

Cancelled dive handled professionally - The dive master fell ill and they couldn't find a replacement so they had to cancel my dive 45 minutes before the scheduled pickup from the cruise terminal. They immediately processed a full refund and contacted me via email and Whatsapp to make sure I got the news. Unfortunately the last minute cancellation meant I couldn't find a replacement.
