1.Superior Producer
One of the best wrecks in the Caribbean.
Superior Producer is an amazing wreck that sits upright and is fully covered with sponges and corals. You often see it surrounded by tarpons and barracudas. It is a deep dive (30mt /100 ft), so you are only able to dive there if you are an advanced diver. The depth means you won´t have too much time to take pictures, but you will definitely enjoy it. It is about a 10 minute swim from shore. But be aware! If there is a cruise ship in port, you are not going to be able to go there, because this wreck lies just below the cruise ship pier .
2. Tugboat
A place for everyone!
This famous Curaçao Tugboat wreck is just 5 meters (15ft) below water, this site is absolutely perfect for divers as well as snorkelers. It is a place for everyone! The wreck is already overgrown with tube sponges and corals and of course is home to a variety of colorful reef fish too.
You can find the Pier next to it, so it is not just a wreck, with full of sponges and critters, a really amazing place!
