Went in for anti-fog for snorkel masks, ended up on a discovery dive the next day with Chris. It is by far our favorite memory from our trip. Robin was incredible and sold us on a dive with The Dive Bus. She knows her stuff but is so relaxed we felt like we were hanging out with our friends at... More

Mark and Suzy were wonderful helping me plan my dive trip with them beforehand. Very thorough and helpful. When I got there, they picked me up from my hotel on the day of my first dive. The dive master I dove with, Kevin, was incredible, very thorough and helpful before, during and after the dive. I'm a new diver (only... More

Went with a group of SCUBA divers that were on our group cruise, but we were just snorkeling. The employees at the Dive Bus were so friendly and helpful, and had a great sense of humour! We rented snorkel gear and paid the very reasonable price to use their facilities for the day. Their 'in-house' reef was great for snorkeling.... More

This is the third trip to Curacao. I have dove with the Dive Bus each trip. Mark and Suzy know how to treat customers as friends. Their new facility is well stocked with gear and provides a great base for diving on their house reef. They provide water, oranges and snacks between the dives and sandwiches at the completion of...

We chose the Dive Bus based on other Trip Advisor reviews and could not have been more pleased. We were staying in the Sea Aquarium beach area and the Dive Bus office location was only about a 2 min drive from the hotel. We arranged to do the 1.5 day scuba certification course and they were extremely easy to communicate... More

After reading the reviews from previous Dive Bus customers, this is where I wanted to be for a week on Curacao. I wasn’t wrong, all of the positive reviews on TripAdvisor are true: Excellent staff: Professional and pleasant and helpful and very informative not only about dive sites and sea creatures but also restaurants, history, and a myriad of tips...

I stayed at the Breezes Resort in January, and I came to this website to find a dive shop I wanted to dive with on my vacation. Even though Ocean Encounters has a shop right on the Breezes Resort, I decided to book with The Dive Bus based on reviews from this website. I have to say that all of... More

Mark and Suzy are the greatest people we know, and we know them well! This is our 3rd time in the last 2 ½ years that we have been diving with The Dive Bus. They operate a small chartered shore diving experience with the utmost respect for you, the environment and all of its surroundings. They are active participates with... More

Did some shore diving with Mark and Susie. Had a fantastic time. The ease of the shore diving and the amount of life we saw under the water was everything we hoped it would be. I highly recommend and we will be back soon More
