Scuba Lodge Dive Center Pietermaai

**An Unforgettable Scuba Diving Experience with Dive Center Pietermaai on Curaçao Island**

Our scuba diving trip on June 20th, 2024, with Dive Center Pietermaai on Curaçao Island was nothing short of spectacular. It was my first time doing a shore dive, and the experience was both easy and unforgettable, thanks to the amazing team at the dive center.

Nikolai and Tim, our guided dive masters, were fantastic. Their expertise and calm demeanor made the entire diving process smooth and enjoyable. They guided us through the stunning underwater world, pointing out vibrant coral reefs and fascinating marine life. As a first-time shore diver, I felt completely at ease with their guidance and appreciated their thorough briefings and clear instructions.

Theo in the shop was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. His enthusiasm and knowledge about the dive gear and sites were reassuring. Theo's assistance was invaluable, and his recommendations made me confident that we had chosen the right company for our adventure.

Daan, the owner of Dive Center Pietermaai, was also a highlight of our experience. He personally picked us up from the cruise ship and made sure we were back on time. During the drive, Daan shared fascinating insights about the island and its rich diving history. His warm and friendly personality, combined with his deep knowledge of Curaçao and its waters, made our trip even more enjoyable.

We also want to give a special shout-out to Ditte, who ensured the security of our belongings on the bus while we were diving. Her professionalism and attentiveness allowed us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the diving experience, knowing our possessions were in good hands.

Overall, our experience with Dive Center Pietermaai was exceptional. The team's professionalism, friendliness, and passion for diving made our day truly memorable. For anyone looking for an outstanding diving adventure on Curaçao Island, we highly recommend Dive Center Pietermaai. We can't wait to dive with them again in the future!

Dan, Tim, Niko, and the rest of the staff are the best. Low keyed, but, extremely professional they go out of their way to insure that you get great dives and snorkeling at a fair price!! The Dive Bus is a great treat wish all dive shops operated this way. Once again they are a true 5 Star dive company.

Great people, fun dives. I did 3 dives here and the first was on the house reef and it had easy access down a new stone walkway. (another reviewer had complained about this access in a photo but construction is necessary and the nice results are now worth it) The shop was welcoming, organized and the dive masters were focused, attentive and safe. My other two dives were to double reef and the Superior Producer wreck which I mention last as I enjoyed it the most. On this dive 2 Dive Center Pietermaai employees came even though I was the only one diving that day and they were even kind enough to help direct a couple staying at Scuba Lodge who were diving independently with some direction at the dive site. It was a genuine and large wreck that I was lucky to see since it is only accessible when a cruise ship is not docked and requires access through a port security gate which was quick & easy since I was diving with Dive Center Pietermaai. If you hope to dive the Superior producer it would be good to check with the dive shop early.

Awesome dive shop! Great staff! They are a very organized shop too which is always a plus, having your morning start off great. Loved their scuba bus which becomes a party bus at the end of the day. Highly recommended! Curacao has great dive sites, and these folks show you around well

Excellent dive center! All of their people were nice, knowledgeable, and fun. The dives were varied, well-planned, and so fun, especially considering such reasonable prices 10/10. I usually travel to new places, but I am already planning on returning and bringing a few people with me!

Great Dive Center, incredible instructors with so much knowledge about diving and their local dive spots. Felt incredibly safe while doing my advanced open water diver there🤿 Saw Turtles twice during 5 Dives!

Excellent dive shop in the heart of Pietermaii. Did 4 shore dives with Ken at Car Pile, Atlantis, and a drift dive at Double Reef - incredible views & safe/fun environment all the way around. Rented gear and had zero issues - very highly recommend Dive Center Pietermaii to anyone looking to dive on the island! Will be back for sure.
