A Day with Sea Turtles and a Lens

The sun was just beginning to rise as I made my way to Playa Piskado, a hidden gem in Sabana Westpunt. The anticipation of swimming with sea turtles had me buzzing with excitement. As a former professional surfer, I’ve spent countless hours in the ocean, but there’s something uniquely magical about sharing the water with these gentle creatures. Marvin, our guide and photographer for the day, greeted us with a warm smile and an easygoing vibe that set the tone for the adventure ahead.

The water was crystal clear, and as I slipped beneath the surface, I was immediately surrounded by the graceful movements of the sea turtles. Marvin captured every moment, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the experience without worrying about missing a shot. It was a surreal feeling, gliding alongside these ancient mariners, and I couldn’t help but feel a deep connection to the ocean, a reminder of why I chose this island life.

Exploring Curacao’s Hidden Treasures

After our enchanting swim, we headed to Grote Knip, a beach that seemed to be plucked straight from a postcard. The white sands and turquoise waters were a sight to behold, and I couldn’t resist striking a pose as Marvin worked his magic behind the lens. His ability to capture the essence of the moment was impressive, and I knew these photos would be cherished memories.

Our journey continued to Playa Lagun, where rugged cliffs framed the clear waters, creating a dramatic backdrop for our photos. Marvin’s enthusiasm was infectious, and he had us all laughing and enjoying the moment. It was a reminder of the joy that comes from exploring new places and sharing those experiences with others.

Capturing Memories in Sint Willibrordus

Our final stop was Sint Willibrordus, where we were treated to the sight of flamingos gracefully wading through the salt flats. Marvin’s keen eye for photography ensured that every shot was a masterpiece, and I couldn’t help but feel grateful for the opportunity to see Curacao through his lens.

As the day came to a close, I reflected on the adventure and the memories we had created. Marvin’s relaxed and accommodating nature made the experience truly special, and the photos he captured were a testament to the beauty of the island and the joy of living in the moment. For anyone looking to explore Curacao and capture its essence, I can’t recommend this tour enough. It’s a day filled with laughter, discovery, and the kind of memories that last a lifetime.
