Haven’t been many places there but went to Curacao last January and going back again this year. It’s the best diving we’ve had. Lots of life, healthy reefs, incredible walls. Air fare is a little more but the diving is included at some of the resorts. Habitat has undergone a renovation. It’s rural and not too touristy once you get away from the city. Aruba is fun, but it’s become very touristy. If you want nice weather every day that’s the direction i would head in.
