Need Ring Recovery at Playa Porto Mari?
Double Reef Snorkel Coast — Recovery on Curaçao's Premier Shore-Dive Beach.
Playa Porto Mari sits on Curaçao's western coast in Sint Willibrordus — famous for its rare "double reef" that creates two parallel reef structures with a sand corridor between them, making it one of the Caribbean's premier shore-entry dive sites. The beach is a curving white-sand crescent with a casual beach bar, palapas, free-roaming wild pigs (a local quirk), and a dive shop. Ring Seekers Playa Porto Mari covers the beach, the shore-entry dive zone, and the surrounding sand patches.
