Welcome to Animal Encounters
Ocean Encounters is known for being Curacao's best diving operator, showcasing some of the most amazing and breath taking dive locations in the entire Caribbean.
In our quest to remain Curacao's leading marine company, we are always expanding our services and packages; most recently with our 'Animal Encounters' program. Through Animal Encounters we offer our guests the opportunity to safely experience the beauty of underwater sea life through scuba and snorkel adventures.
Sea Aquarium Curacao
Our encounters allow for unique interaction with marine animals, as you can feed, interact and observe fish, sea turtles and even sharks in their natural habitats at Sea Aquarium Curacao.
No Dive Certification Needed
Our programs are available for certified and non-certified divers, as no dive experience is needed.
Family Fun
Take friends and family along and go on group encounters with up to 6 participating guests per group.
Family members who do not wish to scuba or snorkel can relax on our patio or enter our "viewing boat" and study the marine life up close. Our boat has special windows at the bottom, allowing you to see your loved ones as they snorkel and feed the sharks.
