MARIE PAMPOEN
Curaçao
27 Log Reports
Sporty dive site
At Marie Pampoen you enter the water at a small harbor. Just outside the harbor, between 20 and 30 meters, you will eventually find a bizarre underwater landscape full of dumped cars, cranes and more scrap. Check your depth gauge often, you are quickly deeper than 30 meters. Take a good look around, you can sometimes see big tarpon. Dive back along the reef.
Particulars
Marie Pampoen resembles a junkyard underwater. The cars date from the forties and were dumped here in the sixties to create an artificial reef. It is a special experience!
Warnings
Be aware of swimmers, boats and sharp scrap.
