Watamula South
Watamula South, Curacao
Watamula South is located next to Elvin’s Plane Wreck, one of the most famous airplane wrecks in Curaçao. Diving from the south mooring of Watamula is an amazing experience and arguably the #1 Boat dive on Curaçao!
The name Watmaula is derived from the Dutch word watermolen meaning water mill. The Northern area of the island is called Watamula, the part of the island that ‘breaths’ according to locals. Many beautiful cliffs, and even a water or sink hole can be found in this area.
The Caribbean Sea is pretty rough along the North coast but there are many calm bays with turquoise blue water to snorkel or swim easily. GO WEST Diving Curaçao, one of the best dive shops in Curaçao, is located at Playa Kalki which is the closest access point to dive at Watamula. So if you are looking for a breath-taking dive that leaves you wanting more, then you need schedule a dive or two at Watamula.
