Highlights
  • The Dive Bus, Curacao - If you’ve been diving in the last 18 months, then join our small guided dive group and we’ll take you diving on two of Curacao’s best shore dive sites – Pierbaai Reef and Car Pile.

If it’s been longer than 18 months, check out our Refresher dive instead :)

These beautiful dive (and snorkel!) sites are right across the road from The Dive Bus dive center. The shallow, protected sandy bay and gently sloping reef are perfect for diving and snorkeling at all levels of experience (including none at all).

When you love this you can always book more dives to other locations around the island :)

First Rate Dive Operation - The Dive Bus is a first rate dive operation. Zoe was nice and very helpful with making sure everything was ready for us when we arrived. Collin was great in the water and made sure we had a wonderful experience. We were on a cruise ship. If you are cruising and want to dive, we recommend The Dive Bus.

Only great things to say about The Dive Bus! - My family and a friend all gad a great time diving with The Dive Bus. I handled most of the communication before arrival via WhatsApp and they were very responsive and answered all my questions quickly and patiently. They also were super helpful once we were there with all of my requests (to dive closer to an area to have a shorter drive to make a dive boat trip in the afternoon up west), for various restaurant and other suggestions and also trying to get in a night dive for my son (his first which was a huge success). The dive masters were great at pointing things out under water and discussing the dives before we went in. We all felt very safe and I would use them again in a heartbeat if and when we return to Curacao.

Super fun and very accommodating for me and my husband who are both very experienced divers. - Good diving with small groups. Two of the highlights for us were a night dive with Colin and a day dive with James using the PPD (Personal Propulsion Device). We always love to do night dives since the reef changes and you get to see lots of cool critters you would not get to see during the day. For example we saw about 5 different octopus, two crabs, a lobster out walking around & sleeping fish. For an afternoon dive, James took us out using PPDs to a dive site called Car Pile. Its like being on a roller coaster underwater. It was really incredible and I highly recommend it. You get to zip around using these motors that you control. Its like being on a motorcycle underwater. WOW!! SO MUCH FUN!! The reefs and corals are in great condition with large schools of fish like blue tangs and bait fish. My favorite coral are the elkhorn and I saw lots of this in Curacao. As far as critters go, we saw eels, scorpion fish, and even a mantis shrimp. Do not expect to see anything large like sharks or rays but the reefs still have a lot to offer even for this experienced diver. Its lazy diving at its best with no current and great viz. We primarily did shore dives which was alot of fun. Being driven around via the bus to all the hot spots hence the name The Dive Bus. No Dramamine needed. Thank you very much! A shout out to Whitney who fixed my AIR2, Colin for some awesome guiding and Mark the owner who was hands on and even picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel, and provided the beer after our night dive. Such service! Thanks to all the staff at The Dive Bus for helping to make our dive trip so much fun!

Great Diving With The Dive Bus - The Dive Bus crew was awesome. Over the course of the week we dove with 3 different folks from the shop. All were great to dive with and spectacular at helping everyone find cool sea life (Octopus, turtles, scorpionfish eels). Loved that the groups for the majority of the dives were just our family and friends. Highly recommend.

My first dive experience with The Dive Bus. - This was my first dive after PADI certification and I’m an older gentleman. Prior to booking, the staff patiently walked me through the necessary steps to come prepared to dive. Upon arrival, equipment check-out was efficient and the gear fit great! I dove with a small group of 5-7 people for three days (package deal). We did two dives per day, right at an hour each. Public beach access was excellent. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The coral cliffs and colorful fish were amazing. Most importantly, the dive master made sure we stayed at the right depth and surfaced with sufficient emergency air. Riding the Dive Bus to each dive site took the hassle out of logistics. Most of all, everyone at the Dive Bus cares that you have a fun experience. If I ever dive in Curacao again, it will be with The Dive Bus crew.

Amazing Week of Diving in Curaçao - I couldn’t have had a better diving experience - the Dive Bus team was amazing in every way. My buddy and I scheduled a whole week of diving with them, and they took us to a different place every day. They were super friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and very accommodating. When my buddy and I stayed out way too late to get up the next day and dive, they let us reschedule dives later in the week. They also connected us with Turtle & Ray Productions, who took amazing professional video and pictures of one of our dives. I would recommend these folks to anyone heading to Curaçao that wants to scuba dive at any level. Can’t wait to go back and dive with Dive Bus crew again!

Perfect dive option for cruise ship passenger! - I was only in Curaçao from 8-5 on a single day (as was a cruise ship passenger). The Dive Bus came highly recommended by other female divers, so I booked a 2 tank dive in the morning. Everything worked out perfectly- had two great shore dives and had plenty of time to get back to the ship before departure. The shop is well stocked with anything you may have forgotten (including reef safe sunblock) and they have well-maintained rental gear available. The dive group was small (just me, the dive leader and another diver) which was ideal! In the second dive we used the underwater scooters (was my first time, loved it). I’d definitely recommend the Dive Bus, will be back in the future for a longer stay in the island so I can explore more dive spots!

Take a ride on The Bus! - My wife and I booked a private dive through The Dive Bus for her first ocean dives. We had an amazing time and Colin, our DM, was spectacular. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and just fun to be around. At the end of the dive we decided to book a second day of diving with them because we had such a great day. 10/10 Highly Recommend!

Great dive! - Great dive. Lots to see. Good service. Nice people. That is all I have to say and I don't think it is appropriate to require a minimum amount of character.
