Courses

An introductory dive is the way to get acquainted with the underwater world. Ever wanted to know what it’s like to breathe underwater and float weightlessly in the water? Under professional guidance, you will take a look underwater and have an experience you will never forget without having to take an extensive course.

The introductory dive takes about 4 hours. This is part theory about diving and, of course, part practice.

After the theory session, we go to the dive site Tugboat. This is open water, but the first part is defined as enclosed water.

  • The minimum age is 10 years.
  • Incl. diving equipment & air

This is PADI’s basic open water course and takes 5 half days of diving and theory.

The “PADI Open Water Diver certification” is the most well-known diving certification worldwide. After completing this diving course, you will have an international diving license and may dive worldwide with a buddy to a depth of up to 18 meters.

For theory, we go through a book with 5 chapters and each chapter ends with a questionnaire of 10 multiple-choice questions. The last one is also the exam consisting of 50 multiple-choice questions.

  • The minimum age is 10 years.
  • Incl. teaching material
  • Incl. full diving equipment & air
  • Incl. certificate

During this course you will do 5 different Adventure Dives where you will learn different aspects of diving.

After this, you are certified to a maximum depth of 30 meters.

Haven’t dived in a while? If so, we recommend starting with a Refresh course.

We will explain the important points to you again after which we will launch together.

Diving at night is a completely different experience. You will find some fish now sleeping or relaxing. But also other animals that are active precisely at night.

Included in this particular dive is a compressed air tank and weights.

We did 2 dives with Adrian and 4 dives with Fernando. I was newly certified and was so lucky to have Fernando teach me so much. He was terrific. The diving is out of this world with wall reefs and visibility over 100 ft. We will certainly be back.

Was in Curacao off a cruise ship from 7:00am to 3:00pm. Arranged a private dive with Epsilon. I opted for a one tank dive due to the time limitation. Yeitson was very accommodating and professional. The dive experience was excellent. They picked me up near the port terminal and dropped me back off in plenty of time.We did a shore dive. Parked about 20 yards from the shore near Tug Boat Beach. Under the dock was a 40′ chain about 5″ in diameter to descend about 40′ to a salvage ship. Continued to a wall and down about 50′ to a shuttled tug boat. The visibility was crystal clear about 100′. The water temperature was about 85 degrees. Saw a variety of fish. Great dive. Highly recommend them and will use them again.

Fernando y Yeitson ofrecen excellente servicio en español, english, papiamento and dutch. They offer excellent service. They are professional divers with 40 years experience! They provide personal attention matching your level of certification and experience. I am an older diver and they facilitated my diving…pure enjoyment! Very good, new equipment of top brands and quality. Padi certified. Completed an Enriched Air Diver especialty. I learned a lot! I liked their philosophy: easy going, no rush dives and You are the focus of their attention. Prices are very good and shop is located INSIDE the Acoya resort making it very convenient. Recommended!
