With the magnitude of islands there is all kinds of diving, walls, caves wrecks, but the diving tourism is especially developed here for example with shark diving. Liveaboards are popular too. |

Curacao has some of the best diving in the Caribbean. Handy is the fact that the sites are close in meaning a lot of shore diving or short boat trips, also like Roatan in this respect, though Roatan doesn't have shore dives. You can expect coral gardens slopes walls and all depths of diving catered for Caves too. Good for beginners and advanced divers. They protect the reef with their Curacao Underwater Park 1,500 acres worth with plans to extend to the whole coast. Most diving is on the west coast with shelter. There can be strong currents and rougher swells on certsain sites, these mostly on the south eastern side. |
Population : 130,000 approx
Main City : Willemstad is the island's only capital and only city.
Language : Papiamento, but Dutch is the official language. Curaçaoans also speak English and Spanish.
Currency :The Netherlands Antillean guilder (also called the florin), abbreviated Naf or ANG is the national currency. It is pegged to the US dollar at a stable rate of US$ 1 = NAf 1.77 for cash, 1.78 for traveller's checks

Jorge and sea cucumber, Roatan 2009. It looks like the cucumber actually likes it, but who will ever know for sure. This is bound to cause some shock and horror to many. I'm not sure if I fully subscribe to the no touch or interaction only watching philosophy. With further interaction I am more interested in learning and therefore end up becoming a conservationist. If those brave guys didnt ever start interacting with great whites we would still be seeing them as ruthless killers.

Anguilla is 15 minutes by ferry from French St Maarten, or maybe qualifying for the worlds shortest flight 4 minutes ! It has an 18 hole PGA standard golf course at Temenos Golf Club that has been designed by Greg Norman.
Anguilla is a place to escape the brash developments that can exist in the Caribbean (so no casinos ) and its for the vacationer who likes luxury and pampering. This is perhaps why it is attracting celebs alike so they can escape their public lives. Anguilla has over 100 restaurants considering its size is a healthy amount of choice.
