When it comes to diving in Curaçao, Bahia Dive Resort at Playa Lagun offers a variety of specialized courses designed to elevate your underwater adventures. One such course is the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty, perfect for divers looking to enhance their skills and enjoy a more efficient and graceful underwater experience. Let’s dive into the details of this course and explore other exciting opportunities available at Bahia Dive Resort.

Peak Performance Buoyancy: Mastering the Art of Buoyancy Control

Why Buoyancy Control Matters

Excellent buoyancy control is the hallmark of a skilled scuba diver. Divers who master this skill glide effortlessly through the water, use less air, and can observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course at Bahia Dive Resort helps you take your buoyancy skills to the next level, making every dive more enjoyable and efficient.

Course Highlights

To enroll in the Peak Performance Buoyancy course, you must be a PADI (Junior) Open Water Diver or higher and at least 10 years old. The course includes two scuba dives where you’ll learn to:

  • Determine the exact weight you need to avoid being too light or too heavy.
  • Trim your weight system and scuba gear for perfect balance in the water.
  • Streamline your equipment to save energy, use air more efficiently, and move smoothly.
  • Hover effortlessly in any position, whether vertical or horizontal.

The first dive of this specialty course can also count as an Adventure Dive toward your Advanced Open Water Diver certification, adding even more value to your diving education.

Other Exciting Courses at Bahia Dive Resort

Self-Reliant Diver: Becoming a Self-Sufficient Diver

While the buddy system is crucial for safe diving, the PADI Self-Reliant Diver specialty teaches you how to handle emergencies on your own. This course is ideal for experienced divers who want to enhance their self-sufficiency and diving confidence.

Navigation Diver: Mastering Underwater Navigation

The PADI Navigation Diver course at Bahia Dive Resort fine-tunes your observation skills and teaches you to use a compass underwater with precision. Through three dives, you’ll learn to estimate distances, follow compass headings, and even create underwater maps.

Coral Reef Conservation: Protecting Vital Ecosystems

The Coral Reef Conservation Specialty course is perfect for anyone interested in the aquatic world. This non-diving course helps you appreciate the complexity of coral reefs and teaches you how to conserve these vital ecosystems. There are no prerequisites, making it accessible to everyone.

Deep Diver: Exploring the Depths

For those drawn to the mysteries of deeper waters, the PADI Deep Diver Specialty course allows you to explore dive sites down to 40 meters (130 feet). You’ll learn to manage your gas supply, deal with gas narcosis, and use specialized deep diving equipment.

Enriched Air Nitrox Diver: Extending Your Bottom Time

The Enriched Air Nitrox Diver course is PADI’s most popular specialty. Diving with enriched air nitrox allows you to stay down longer and get back in the water sooner. The course covers oxygen exposure management, analyzing oxygen content in your scuba tank, and setting your dive computer for enriched air nitrox.

It is always a pleasure to visit Bahia Apartements & Diving. The Staff is wonderful. They always do their best so you can have a great stay. The place and the beach are unique. I will recomend this place if you are uncertain where to send your holyday.
Really good apartment in the best conceivable location for snorkeling direct from your lodging. Two good restaurants on site and across the street. Service was lacking because they kept forgetting to bring enough towels for our group, and staff were not able to provide them when asked (twice). This was an office error. The staff were great. The whole situation is wonderful.
My daughter and I just returned from a wonderful week at Bahia. We had a one bedroom on the second floor with a nice big balcony. The view was stunning. Bathroom was nice, stocked kitchen and cute dining area. Comfortable beds. The restaurant was yummy though we only ate there once, opting to make our meals.

Everyone is so nice there and it’s a quiet place. You can hear the waves from the Lagun below. Great snorkeling. Doesn’t matter that it is up North, as there are great snorkel spots there like Playa Kalki, Knip, and turtles at Playa Grandi. Porto Mari is only 20 minutes.

We went South to Tugboat and visited Jan Thiel and Willemstad in the evening before heading home to Bahia at Playa Lagun. The night before we left, we did a night snorkel there which is possible because they keep lights on the beach. Very safe area. Miss it already.
Amazing place, visiting for the 2nd time. Super friendly and helpful staff members. If it's your first time diving or you are looking to overcome some dive related fears, or do courses - this is the place to go.
We’ve been diving with Bahia for the past week. My husband and I have over 1,000 dives each and we both worked at a dive shop for several years. I say that for context only because I have to say this is one of the safest, friendliest and most professional shops I’ve ever had the pleasure of diving with!

Definitely not a “churn and burn” dive mill, like I’ve seen other places, it’s a smaller operation and they spend one on one time with everyone.

They took us around for some great dives,
pointed us to some beautiful reefs to dive on our own, the staff were super helpful, extremely friendly and their equipment was very well maintained.

We were diving with our teenage sons as well, had an amazing vacation and we definitely will be back to dive with Bahia again!
Our family stayed in the 3 bedroom unit. The unit was clean and the location was perfect. Access to the dive shop was fantastic and the diving off the beach was great. We only ate at the restaurant once as we were trying to keep the costs down - enjoyed it. There is only A/C in the bedrooms and they do charge for the electricity. We would turn them on a few minutes before bed and it would cool down the rooms quickly.
My experience at Bahia Diving and Apartments was good. The location is perfect, nestled in a beautiful bay that offers a serene atmosphere and breathtaking views. The apartments, while basic, are comfortable and clean, providing all the necessary amenities for a pleasant stay.

The staff is friendly. The food served at the bar/restaurant is delicious and varied, catering to different tastes and preferences. Plus, the panoramic views from the dining area make every meal a memorable experience.

One of the highlights of our trip was the on-site diving school. We had the pleasure of having Riana as our guide for our first dive, and she made us feel at ease and ensured that our dive was an unforgettable adventure.

The best part about Bahia Diving and Apartments is that it's tucked away from the crowds and mass tourism, offering a relaxed and tranquil environment. The overall atmosphere is lovely, and I cannot recommend this place highly enough for anyone looking for a fantastic diving experience and a cozy place to stay.

1 star deduction because we kept having problems with the in-room safe, which disrupted our schedule one day, but it was solved adequatly eventually. Also, after a day at Willemstad, we came back to find our room was not locked after the cleaning staff did their thing. One more bummer was the fact that we were told on scene that we could dive whenever we felt like it again, but that didn't turn put to be the case, because all of a sudden it was fully booked.

Dinner tip: next to Bahia is a restaurant called Discover Lagun. Best meals & cocktails in town.
