About this dive site

This dive site is located near Directors Bay, just 5 meters (15 feet) below a steep cliffside leading to the Quarantine House in Caracasbaai, Curaçao. The Tugboat wreck was intentionally sunk offshore of Tugboat Beach, making it easily accessible for divers and snorkelers alike. This area is renowned for its abundant marine life. Expect to encounter seahorses, octopus, lobsters, sleeping scorpionfish, and occasionally a nudibranch if you’re lucky! The wreck itself is covered in tube sponges and coral, creating a vibrant habitat for colorful reef fish. Majestic blue parrotfish and yellowtail snappers patrol this captivating location.
