Dive-site story
Vaersenbaai, locally operating as Kokomo Beach, sits inside a protected cove along the western coastline of Curaçao. A brief surface kick across the sandy plateau leads directly to a sloping reef system filled with gorgonians, mountainous star coral, and azure vase sponges. The wall descends steeply past the drop-off, where creole wrasse aggregate in open water and morays shelter under ledge overhangs.
Gradual sandy plateau transitioning into a steep coral-encrusted drop-off
Submerged vehicle remains and structural wreckage resting on the deep slope
Easy shore entry supported by on-site facilities and a dock ladder
