Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Superior Producer
The wreck of the Superior Producer has been gathering coral since 1977, in about 25-35 meters (80-110 feet) of depth. It's a worthwhile and relatively easy wreck dive, when the conditions are right.
Found on the coastal highway of Pater Euwensweg in Otrobanda, just 1.1 km West of the inlet to the harbor area of Willemstad.
Parking is at the Holiday Beach Hotel. If it is not too choppy it is easy to enter the water from shore (off the concrete jetty). Boats go there quit often also.
If you choose to park abeam the wreck buoy on the Mega Pier, leave someone watching your car. We had our cars broken into twice in a year at this site.
Superior Producer is also known as Location Mega Pier.

We weren't trying to make it to the Producer, but am writing this review to advise of a new dive shop in the Holiday Beach Hotel adjacent: Goby Divers. This is the location pictured in the opening photo. They have re-opened and remodeled the previous shop and dock facility, and have all new equipment for rentals as well. This is a PADI facility. The proprietor, Andhiela van Hoof-Buso was extremely cordial and helpful on our visit to the island while cruising on the Noordam. The location is an easy walk over from the cruise ship pier on the Otrabanda side. For the shore dive out from the shop, this has to be THE easiest and one of the best-preserved reefs we have found in the Caribbean (you know, one of those dives where you really feel like you're in an aquarium?) Immediately on entry from a shallow protected sandy beach you come upon a rope line underwater which guides you right out to the reef. Further for a reference point a directional sign rests on the bottom at 50 ft. Current was strong at shallow depth but negligible on the reef. I should mention they do dive the Superior Producer when there are no ships at the nearby dock. Have fun! www.goby-divers.com facebook.com/GobyDivers or Andhiela@Goby-Divers.com DISCLAIMER: I have no connection with this shop whatsoever, but can't recommend them enough!
