Looking to join you or your group to Bonaire

[turtlemoye]

I'm hoping to make it to Bonaire soon but will likely have to travel alone as my wife has no interest in going and I really don't have any dive buddies.

If you are planning a trip in the next few months please let me know if you need someone to join your party.

Singledivers has a trip coming up - but it's soon 3/5-3/12. Check out singledivers.com - many trips. (not a dating site - just saves on the single upcharge if you don't have a friend/buddy to travel with)

While this sounds like a good option I'm a little surprised how expensive it is.

"6 days of unlimited shore diving. Plus breakfast and lunch daily and two dinners = $1199 d/o"

Many of the other groups are getting something similar for $600-700 (usually with a truck but without lunch+dinner).

I'm not trying to be critical, they obviously have their specialty and many happy members but I'm trying to do closer to that $700 figure.

Then check out the Dive NY group that is going the end of June, someone already posted the link above, the trip is unlimited shore dives, some boat dives a truck rental, and more, the info is on the page and it is $620 per person.

Also give Indian Valley Scuba a call, they are running a trip the week before as well, I am not sure what their cost is, but I do know it is close

The NY groups trip in June would be perfect if not for an existing commitment during that week. Oddly enough Herman's group is going the same week at my LDS group but it filled up before I could get in. While the option to dive with both groups exist I would still like someone to room with to help cut cost.

I'll keep trying though. If any other single (who isn't a nut job ) want's to split a room during April 16-23 please let me know.
