Description
The SeaBob tour is offered at three different beaches; the Tugboat Beach, Playa Piscado and the Blue Room (departure from Santa Cruz Beach). You will meet us on the selected beach or you can request a hotel transfer for a certain fee. The tour goes out with minimum 2 and maximum 4 people.
Prior to the tour, we will explain the safety rules and how to operate the SeaBob. You will sign a “waiver of claims” for acknowledgement of the rules and regulations. You will practice with the SeaBob in shallow water before heading out to the deeper parts of the sea.
The SeaBob is the latest and greatest technology serving as your own personal submarine. It is an advanced eco-friendly water sled propelled by a pollution free E-jet power system and designed for speed and pleasure. Depending on the water conditions, speed ‘over’ water can be up to 15 km/h and ‘under’ water up to 11 km/h. Steering and diving is easy, just shift your body weight to the desired direction.
You can dive 40 meters deep with the SeaBob, but depth is regulated for safety reasons to a maximum of 2.5 meters. It is a cool way to explore the clear waters of Curacao feeling like a dolphin cutting smoothly and silently through the water.
We offer the SeaBob experience at 3 locations:
Tugboat Beach: The famous tugboat shipwreck with a myriad of corals and tropical fishes.
Playa Piscado: You will most probably see lots of turtles and swim through large schools of fishes.
Blue Room: You will start from Santa Cruz beach to the one and only Blue Room. You will get to enter the cave, experience the blue illumination then swim back to the beach passing by a shipwreck. It is an underwater cave and you will have to dive 1 meter to get in.

My friends and I had an incredible time on the seabob Curacao tour. From the moment we met Susie she was super friendly and made you feel at ease. The seabobs were easy to use and we had an amazing time, we saw sea turtles, got to explore the shipwreck and see lots of marine life. It was great being able to dive deeper , cover so much ocean, and move through the water freely, so much fun! Our guide Susie took about a lot of photos of us too which are great! Highly recommend it.December 29, 2018

This was probably was one of the best experiences ever. I’m thankful that I had such a great and patience instructor. This will be something I’ll never forget. Looking forward to seeing this pictures and videos! Thank you Suzy!December 22, 2018

Probably the best tour of the island. We went twice. We checked with the turtles and did the blueroom. Extremely recommended.November 25, 2018

I've wanted to SeaBob for a while now and being in Curacao on vacation felt like the right time to do it. Setting everything up with SeaBob Curacao was so easy. They were very quick to respond and very professional. I drove out to the location - a remote beach on the northwest coast (Playa Piskado in Westpunt). Allow yourself plenty of time to get there as the route can be confusing, but it's gorgeous scenery. I met Suzy and Brian at the dock and they could not have been nicer. Suzy took us out on the excursion and was funny, bright and full of life and energy. The experience was like being a dolphin, being able to speed across the surface and dive under the water, where we saw sea turtles and beautiful schools of fish. Make sure you opt for the video/photo package so you don't have to fumble around with a camera. Suzy spent so much time with me and was so delightful, even pushing me beyond what I thought were my limits. I was sore the next day (it's more strenuous than it looks) but it was worth every penny. I tipped Suzy well since she and her company deserved it for providing such a wonderful, memorable, one-of-a-kind experience.November 18, 2018

Let me start by saying I stumbled on this excursion by accident but it was the most amazing accidental discovery. Suzy was incredibly helpful and patient maximizing your opportunity for the best photos and videos as well as making sure you get the ultimate sea bob experience. I would go back 1000 times again. Her editing skill makes you want to relive all over again. When I return she's going to be the first excursion I take my family and friends on.November 15, 2018

Both my girlfriend and I had an amazing time. Suzy was a great tour guide and made the experience that much better! We definitely recommend you take this tour, it's something you shouldn't miss out on if you are in Curacao. Make sure not to forget to take the picture package!August 26, 2018

Suzy is a great tour guide. She made sure we knew how to use the seabobs before we got started, and shared useful tips along the way. We did the tour to the blue room, which was so pretty. There were also small schools of fish in the blue room, which we were able to swim with. We did the photo package (great photos and a 2 min video of our adventure), so we didn't have to worry about dropping or losing anything. The seabobs were really fun to use.July 29, 2018

Seabob is life! Don't sleep on this one, it is a must! Our host Suzy is amazing! Ask for her, she is so awesome, helpful, informative, funny, etc. We did this at playa piskado with the turtles!! I loved it, Suzie took great pictures. If you have a gopro just do yourself a favor and pay for the pictures!! We tried to take our own pics and did not work out!! I definitely recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Curacao. It was the highlight of our trip!June 26, 2018

My best friend and I went here for my birthday and Susie was amazing! She explained what to do, helped my friend face her fear, and caught amazing footage on her on phone to send to us so we could post it! For $30 USD I had the best experience ever! Seabobbing was amazing and her professionalism and hospitality matched as well! She even gave us a list of amazing beaches to visit in the West of the island! & watched our belongings while we were out in the water! Had an amazing time! See Susie! Lol!May 10, 2018

My kids (12 and 10) and I had the absolute BEST time with Andy on the Seabob. We could have stayed out all day swimming with the turtles. Andy was really friendly (and an incredible diver!) who took really great photos of all of us and the resident sea turtles. We also felt very safe with him. Was not sure what to expect but an earlier review saying it was like riding your own personal dolphin is about right! I felt a bit like James Bond in "Octopussy"/ Kids and I loved it and will do it again next time we are in Curacao at one of the other locations that Seabob visits. Was also great seeing the fisherman with their catch (including a Moray eel!)April 22, 2018
Mighty_zjax
This was for me one of THE BEST things i've ever tried on curaçao. This was really fun and an overal great experience. We were able to swim with lots and lots of fishes and even really big turtles!February 27, 2018
Also the guide Andy is super friendly and did his best to take some great pictures of me and my buddy on the tour.
I would recommend anyone to try it out once!

Think of a dolphin you can drive to your will, either on surface or the sea bottom. A fast way to submerge and get back to surface. Now you’ve got the idea about a seabob. 4 speeds to choose from, a display and a throttle on the right. You’ll en up doing tricks with it since it mimics your body moves. Andy picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel, and we had a pleasant beach day where the turtles are. Can’t recommend this experience more. (Pictures by Andy himself).February 24, 2018

The seabob was A LOT of fun - honestly, I coul have stayed out all day riding around, swimming with the fish and turtles. Being able to explore with the seabob was a nice alternative to just snorkeling because you can move around quickly, get to depths you might not otherwise, etc. I am not a great swimmer & normally I would be much more nervous, but Andy’s straightforward instructions put me at ease right away. February 16, 2018
The tour is great for the unique experience of using a seabob, but also because it’s a small group - no more than 4 people - so that gives Andy plenty of time to spend with everyone, pointing out spots to visit and capturing the action with photos.
Also, this must be said: Suzy and Andy are absolutely terrific. Suzy was so helpful with organizing everything. I love how passionate they are about Curaçao and sharing it with others.
The tour was a highlight of my trip and when I’m back in Curaçao, without a doubt, I will be doing a tour with them again.

Swimming with Sea turtles was truly magical! I had heard swimming with Sea turtles was very rewarding, exciting, peaceful and fun. But hearing about it and experiencing it are two very different things!!January 24, 2018
Finding SeaBob Curaçao took a little time and patience through TripAdvisor since they are a newer excursion in Curaçao. But I’m glad we spent the time researching because it really was the highlight of our trip!!
What was great ?
Being able to really get up close and swim near these majestic creatures. Seeing them glide through the water was amazing. And using the SeaBobs allows you to follow them. So rather than see a Sea turtle with a snorkel and mask just passing by the SeaBobs allows you to get up close but also watch them. See what they do, where they decide to go. How will the Turtles swim through that massive swarm of bait fish ? Will they try to eat them ? How close will they get to the beach or other people ? You get a much more up close and personal experience while using the SeaBobs!! Plus Andy our tour guide made finding and following them that much easier... Not only was he pointing out where they were and guiding you but he was always looking to capture photos with unique perspectives of you with the Sea turtles...!!! Being a photographer myself I’m amazed at the number of different perspectives and shots he was able to capture! Pretty remarkable!!
Towards the end of our trip we ventured away from the beach where the turtles were and stumbled across a beautiful stingray..!! With a really long tail :)!! A bonus !!
The Facts - Here’s what you need to know
Cost $85/pp picture package is additional
Excursion duration - approx 1hr and a half
Location - on the west end of the island in WestPunt. Driving it takes about 50min from Willemstad. They can arrange to pick you up for an additional cost.
Bring your own snacks or drinks
No gear is needed they provide everything
Were the SeaBobs easy to control and use ? Yes it took a few minutes to orient yourself to the throttle and power levels as well as how to navigate underwater.
Were the SeaBobs fun ? 100% a blast
Any regrets or negatives ? Nothing
Suzy and Andy run the business. They are very responsive via their website and phone. They are really great people.
If you want an amazing experience and photos of you looking like the cover of NatIonal Geographic then don’t miss it!!
It was awesome!

We tried both the seabobs and the hookah diving. Andy and Suzy were helpful and nice. The equipment worked well. We enjoyed our time exploring.January 21, 2018
The seabobs are effectively underwater scooters--basically small jet skis that will propel you underwater and that you can control simply by shifting your weight. It's interesting to be able to cruise effortlessly underwater as long as you can hold your breath. I had fun trailing a turtle watching its graceful swimming. Seabobs seems like the kind of thing that are fun to try but you wouldn't want to own after the novelty wears off.
The hookah diving was simple and easy. A floating compressor sent air through long hoses to each of our regulators enabling us to stay down indefinitely with minimal gear--effectively SCUBA without tanks and without the ability to go very deep. If you have lots of SCUBA experience this will be unimpressive but if you've only or mostly been limited to snorkeling, hookah diving opens up underwater exploration. We enjoyed sitting on the bottom as a school of fish surrounded us, as we watch mesmerized.
Andy and Suzy were waiting for us at the appointed time and place, and got us ready to go with minimal delay or formality. It's clearly a small and pretty casual operation, which suited us just fine. Huge thanks to Andy who took lots of photos (with his GoPro) and sent to us a few days later.
