Curaçao Prepares for Third Annual Dive Festival
This Year’s Event Promises to be Bigger and Better
WILLEMSTAD,
CURAÇAO – November 2007 – Curaçao is pleased to announce the dates for its Third
Annual Dive Festival, May 24 through May 31, 2008. Ranked among the Caribbean’s
best islands for diving, called one of the top destinations for new divers,
home to "Mushroom Forest" - one of the top dives in the world, and
rated best in the Caribbean for shore diving, Curaçao is, or should be, on any
diver’s wish list of places to visit. After a successful Dive Festival in 2007,
and in an effort to continue to share its underwater splendor with the world
and invite visitors to come explore the depths of the island’s surrounding waters,
Curaçao is preparing for its 2008 Dive Festival.
“As a new diver I could not have found a better event to attend than the First Annual Curaçao Dive Festival,” commented George Willis, a participant in the 2006 Dive Festival. “The speakers were great and to be able to actually meet and dive with them was unreal. I still can’t believe I got to dive with Marty Snyderman and the knowledge that Robert Myers shared during our dives together will remain with me for the rest of my life.”
Registration is free and visitors can enjoy a week full of guided dives, workshops, seminars and advanced dives, while nightfall brings happy hour gatherings with live entertainment, movies on the beach, BBQs and night dives. Visitors are welcome to join the full week of activities, or just join in for two or three days, since it’s a free festival there is no monetary commitment that ties visitors in to a strict schedule. Plus, local dive operators are offering special packages throughout the festival.
World famous experts will lead the Curaçao Dive Festival program with workshops
throughout the festival.
Check back shortly for a list of attendees and upcoming workshops & events.
In addition to fabulous diving, Curaçao also offers great hotel and resort
options, plus a wide variety of topside attractions and dining options.
