Curaçao
Black Coral Garden is one of the dive sites on Curaçao where except for the rare black coral, also seahorses are spotted. The reef slopes gradually, with here and there healthy coral formations. The drop off lies at 10 meters. You can see the most diverse reef fish, but also turtles are common here.
Particulars
