Snorkeling in Curacao?

[msfma]

Can you snorkel to the sunken tugboat from a beach? Or is it best to sign up for one of the snorkel excursions by boat?

 

Where is the best snorkeling in Curacao?

Read the thread about Curacao Actief. The Tugboat is close to the beach. However, the beach is a long ride from the port. In some places it is like driving off road. The beach is also not a sandy beach. It is a pebble beach and hard on tender feet. Once you are past the beach, the snorkeling is super! We highly recommend Curacao Actief! We originally thought it would be from a boat but they take you in a van. You get a land tour as well as some great snorkeling.

There are many good snorkeling beaches in Curacao- such as Playa Porto Mari. Yes, a guide is a good idea, because many of the beaches are a distance from the docks. With a guide, you can go to a few beaches, have a tour, and get back to the ship without having to call a taxi.
