Curaçao Seabob Tour (von Bearded Butlers Curaçao)

Everything about the excursion was amazing! Calvin was so patient and great! I would definitely do it again! The pictures and videos came out real nice.

We arrived at the meeting place on Baya Beach with plenty of theme to spare. The area is a little desolate with minimal signage; we were glad that our directions from Bearded Butlers were concise and accurate. Our early arrival allowed us the opportunity to explore the ruins of Fort Beekenburg at the northern end of the bay. Our guide arrived on time and after a short introduction to the Seabob, it was into the water and away we went. The controls are very straightforward, but if you feel the need, there are a few YouTube videos that can help familiarise you with the machine. After a short introduction at Baya Beach we moved to Tugboat Beach. The highlight here is the ruins of tugboat on the sea floor in shallow water, although I wasn’t sure whether exploration of the wreck was the key - or to play ‘dodge the scuba diver’! In any case, we had the upper hand in manoeuvrability. Then out past the next headland with some choppy waves before making it to the relatively sheltered Director’s Bay. The beach drop-off is short and steep and the ocean colour the deepest of deep blues. Then it’s time to head back to the Baya Bay. It’s a fun hour, excellent easy going guide, and the machines worked as expected. Pro tip - tie your swimmers on tightly, otherwise at speed on the Seabob, you’ll likely be naked in no time. Value for money - excellent. A fun activity for sure.

Don’t miss this experience! The seabob tour is one of the most unique activities we’ve done and a highlight of our trip! The owner and our guide were both fantastic and made sure we had a great time. We were able to see so many different kinds of fish and coral, as well as the tugboat wreck. We would have done it again the next day if we could!
