BARRACUDA POINT
Curaçao
Barracuda Point is loved by wide-angle photographers because of its beautiful coral fields. The dive site is also ideal for a drift dive to Director's Bay. Let the current take you along the reef while the coral fields pass you by. The reef gradually descends to 15 meters, before descending more steeply.
Particulars
Barracuda Point is located on the peninsula just across the Barbara Beach canal and at the mouth of the Spanish Water. The Spanish Water is a large bay with small coves, islands and harbors. Jump from the boat into the water and start your dive.
Warnings
Watch out for shipping at Barracuda Point. The use of a surface buoy is mandatory on Curaçao.
