Playa Lagun is at the South end of Lagun.  It's more of a family beach, but still with world-class diving only a few minutes out. Snorkelling: nice in the bay, with cliffs and rocks overgrown with coral and sponges.
Sometimes there are turtles swimming in the bay.
The drop-off start approx. 150-200 m from the beach, at a depth of 10 m. Slope 45 degrees outward, till a depth of 30 m, afterwards steeper.
Beautiful coral, growing in mushroom shapes, lots of sea-life.

South end of Lagun. Good parking facilities at the beach, from where you can enter the water. Swim out the bay to reach the drop-off (appr. 200 m).

Northwest of Willemstad, travel 12.3 km West on Weg Naar Westpunt from the Weg Naar Hato intersection to San Pedro.  Turn left to head toward Soto.  Travel 15 km to reach the intersection shown below in the village of Lagun.

Playa Lagun

Dove this site two days ago and found abundant life.  Plenty of reef squid, moray eels, invertebrates, and more stone fish on one dive then I've seen in the last 15 years.  Some mushroom-like coral formations, too.  There is apparently a cave under the cliffs, but I missed it.  Definitely better to do this one during the week due to crowds.  It *is* quite a surface swim but worth it.  A bit sandy in the parking lot for gear setup and break down so I'll bring a tarp next time.  I'll definitely be doing this one again.
