Intro Dive for Beginners l Never thought I would do this! My first scuba diving in Curacao

Never thought I would try a scuba diving! I'm not a non-swimmer, but a beginner swimmer. On my recent vacation in Curacao, I took the Intro Dive for Beginners course while staying in Curacao Marriott Beach Resort. Turns out it wasn't that different than snorkeling! I absolutely loved the full experience, and I felt a great sense of achievement. I can't recommend this enough. In this travel vlog, I show you how to scuba dive for the first time step by step.

Would you try scuba diving? :) Curacao Marriot Resort is my top recommendation. Book your stay here: shorturl.at/dpqTY

Congratulations Juhui, scuba is so much fun.. I don't do it as much as I used to any more but I still try to keep up with it once in a while. The underwater world is amazing, but it can be scary until you get more comfortable with it. I also got my daughter and gf into diving too, so now nearly every vacation we take is a diving destination.

Thank you! It was so much fun :) Even though I only scratched the surface this time, I am totally hooked and looking forward to more diving opportunities in near future. Good for you and your family! It’s great to be able to enjoy such a hobby with loved ones. Please feel free to share your favorite diving destinations anytime!

That’s amazing. Think I am gonna try it

[@NewYorkerJuhui]

Go for it!!

Thank you for sharing! Your video conviced my partner and I to book a trip to Curacao next month! How long was the entire course? How much time did you have underwater? We want to book something similar and are comparing how much time each dive shop has underwater. Thank you!

[@NewYorkerJuhui]

I am so excited for you! The entire course was about 2 hours, and I believe we spent about 40 minutes in the water practicing skills and scuba-diving. Depending on the students, I think they allow more or less time underwater. I highly recommend the Goby Divers at the Marriott, especially if this is your very first time trying scuba-diving. The instructors were great. Shore diving was a more convenient and safer option. Overall, I had a really good experience :) Anyways, have a great vacation in Curacao and enjoy everything it has to offer!
