My name is Mayrond van Lamoen, I was born and raised in Curaçao. I come from a local fisher’s family that lives on the south-west coast of the island (Maripampoen). As a kid, the Maripampoen beach (Pier) was our playground. We used to go swimming, snorkeling, and fishing with the family almost every day.

Growing up I was taught some amazing fishing techniques that were passed down from generation to generation. When I turned sixteen I went to the Netherlands to pursue my studies, but by nineteen I came back to the island with more passion for the ocean and started exploring the underwater life of Curaçao with free diving. And it’s amazing! There is a big variety of marine life and also some wrecks to explore.

After exploring some of these sights I brought some family and friends along to show them the treasures that I had discovered. I enjoyed this so much that I also started taking family members that came down from the Netherlands to vacation in Curaçao, they loved it! This is how I came up with the idea to guide nature and sea enthusiasts on a great adventure to these special locations. Exploring the island is hard when you don’t know where to go. That is why it will be my pleasure to guide you on an experience I guarantee you will never forget.
