I visited Curaçao on a quickly planned trip and Petricia with Relaxed guided dives was very accommodating. Two things immediately stood out during planning 1) their clear website 2) quick responses by email and phone. Additionally, they gladly helped my travel plans - especially as they will pick you up from many parts of the island. The instructors were very... More

The group I was going to dive with during my brief stay in Curacao fell through at the last moment due to circumstances beyond their control and Relaxed Guided Dives stepped in and did an excellent job for me with basically no advanced notice. I hadn't planned on using Relaxed Guided Dives before hand because I couldn't figure out where... More

I visited Curacao in the 2nd week of may 2013. Because my partner had to take care of our baby, I had no diving buddy. So I booked a 4 days shore diving with Relaxed Guided Dives. Their website and Facebook page looked promising. I can assure you there company name is realy wat you experience if you go diving... More

We decided this morning that we missed a diving experience and have only 48 hours left on the beautiful island. My daughter start calling because we wanted to do it today. This diving center had a place for us and we loved every minute of it. When we come back we will definitely take a full course with relaxed guided... More

The dives with Relaxed Guided Dives were the best and most relaxed dives I ever did. My guide Petricia knew what she was about. She was patient and gave clear instructions concerning both safety and the underwater wonders all around us. I really enjoyed it. The prices are very good. And afterwards I got some great pictures of Neptune, turtles... More

We asked about booking an Advanced Open Water course just a few days before our arrival, and Petricia and Rob were great about finding the time in their schedule to fit us in. Their shop is in an easy to find central location and it allowed them to choose the most appropriate dive site for each section of the course.... More

I enjoyed scuba diving with my 15 years-old son while we called at Curacao during the cruise. Both of us got our Open Water certificates a year ago, and this was our first dive since then. Petricia instructed vey patiently and guided us into the spots where even the beginners can enjoy. More importantly, our issue was that my wife... More

Petricia is the most patience diving instructor ever! This was my first time diving while in Curacao. Petricia went over safety and the ins and outs of the diving equipment. While out in the water she demostrated blowing water out of the mask and does it with you. The first day out was an easy dive and she just took... More

I contacted a few dive operators, but when Petricia mentioned the PADI Invasive Lionfish Tracker Distinctive Specialty, I knew I would be diving with them for part of my vacation. Diving on the island is great, but taking this course added something else to the experience. Their dive shop is picture perfect, love their open-air "classroom" and their air filling... More
