Comments	Wanted to put in a good word about Niels Jorissen and his outfit. Niels was very responsive; he was in phone contact the day we landed, and also called repeatedly the next morning until he tracked us down when dive conditions forced a change in launch location. They dive west, north, and south, going for more remote locations, although conditions kept us south. Uses a RIB, extremely (!) low key operation which for us was perfect-set up your own gear, lots of stories and jokes, more like diving with friends than a company. Definitely appropriate for more advanced divers. Boutique operation-first day 6 divers, second day my boyfriend and I were the only divers-awesome. Although there is a lot of coral bleaching on Curacao, the small fish life is varied and abundant, making it a step above most standard Caribbean diving. You'll pay a little more with Niels, but the diving is very good to excellent, the day was a blast, everyone on the boat is friendly, and the divers know what they are doing-a treat.
