Two companies got back to me today saying they would do the 2 tank dives:  If were going to make the effort we might as well get two dives in?

 Or maybe we get more women and do two groups?   Out of 1600 should be more divers... Debb, what is your email address or email me at barb@barbrowland.com  Thanks.

Hello Barb,

For a group of 6 – 8 divers we can make a private 2-tank no problem.

Charges for the 2-tank guided shore dive is US $ 97,- including all needed equipment, transport/pick-up service and tax.

We can pick you up at the main gate of the dock there where the cars leave at 13.45hrs, drive to the dive shop to do the paperwork and payment. If you can give us the sizes ( BCD, wetsuit and shoe size ) we can have the equipment ready for you, this will save a lot of time preparing for the dives.

Please let us know if you have questions or like to book this.

Met vriendelijk groet / Kind regards,

Ruud de Loos

I like the company you booked.  The reviews were very good and we have unlimited shore diving after the boat dive.  We could even do a night dive on their house reef if anyone is interested in doing that since our ship doesn't leave until midnight.

I say no Deb...Stick with what we all booked already...They are out of The Marriott...Reputable Co...and when we are done on Boat they exchange tanks free for us to shore dive on our own at their reef...also...if we can fill a boat...which I'm sure we can....it's all us women...we'll be on the Marriott Dive with all you girls...

We have already booked with Carribean Seasports. I'm not sure if it is too late to cancel.  What does anyone else think?

No, I was very disappointed in Aruba diving...

Can I give it a shot?

Because we get in to Curacao at 1, I could not find a two tank dive just the one tank I booked.  Would love for you to join us. Email them that you would like to book on the same boat as us.   Are you doing the Aruba dive too?

Yes, I am interested... thought it funny they would dive Aruba a not very good place to dive and not Curacao a great place to dive.

I would be interested in a two tank dive....if were going to do it, lets do it....

I don't know about the dolphin dive.  The only one we can make with this company is the one through  Curacao underwater park.  Would love to have you along.  Email the dive company and ask to book a dive on Wednesday 1/30.   Tell them you would like to be on the boat with Deb Byrnes and company.   Post here if you have any trouble and we can add you. We will be in room 7005. What part of MN are you from?  Shen-Li and I are headed there shortly after the cruise to Rochester and hopefully Minneapolis.
