The Sony A7siii is highly regarded for its low light capabilities making it a popular consideration for growing underwater videographers. Aside from cost, the biggest hurdle is the learning curve on how to build a working rig. Yet, we have not seen anyone share how to build an entire underwater...
We just released part two of our A Diver's Life special edition of Conserving Bonaire's Sea Turtles and we think it is even better than part 1! Come with us out to Lac Bay to witness a Sea Turtle Conservation Bonaire in-water survey of green turtles in the bay. Most will never see green turtles...
Sea Turtles! What diver or snorkeler does not love them? Yet, most turtles that visit Bonaire are critically endangered. On Bonaire they get help. A Diver's Life introduces its first special edition that focuses on Bonaire sea turtle conservation and the amazing organization behind it - Sea...
My Wife and I have been going to Bonaire for years. We always have issues finding cheap, available, reliable trucks for diving. We know a local family that just started Bonaire Truck Rental (bonairetruckrental.com). We just got back from a dive trip and we're so happy we booked with them. They...
We released a new video on A Diver's Life as we passed 1000 YouTube subscribers. In this episode we took advantage of a drop in the wind to dive a seldom dove site at Kite Beach. The absence of diver and fisherman on this site has helped rejuvenate the reef. Beautiful blue parrotfish, hawksbill...
Hey guys, I will be heading to Bonaire for the first time in a couples weeks. Will staying at Buddy Dive, and will be arriving early Saturday afternoon. Wanted to check if anyone has been to buddy dive lately and know if they will allow me to do the Orientation dive that day instead of Sunday...

Come with us as we take you to the the Hooker at night! Shot with our new Sony A7Siii camera in 4k 10 bit video the wreck...
Wife and I dove Bari Reef one night during our August 18-28th trip. As soon as we hit the water a single large tarpon arrived and by the end of the dive there were three. A little unnerving at first, then entertaining and then annoying. They were using our lights to hunt. Focusing on...
The mangrove forest of Bonaire's Lac Bay. It is one of the most important habitats on the island. Mangroves are a life blood of the reef as they create a safe habitat for small fish to mature before venturing out to the open sea. In this new installment of our Off the Beaten Path track we jump...
Hi,
My name is TJ and I am in the process of getting my PADI Open Water Certification. I start my pool sessions tonight. My wife & I are going to Bonaire from Sept 8th to the 18th. Looking see if anyone out there might be there at the same time. My wife doesn't dive, so I am looking for...
My husband and I are frequent visitors to Bonaire. We have also done some diving in Belize and Curaçao, but we love the diversity of ocean life, the protected reefs, and the shore diving in Bonaire, so it has been our go to diving destination for the past 10 years. We had to cancel last year...
Hello divers!,
last year I was in Curacao doing "shallow" (no more than -11m) freediving (watching sea life and lionfish hunting) and had a great time. It was up west and from a small cliff (via a sea ladder) very very close to the apartment.
The only problem were the jet skis... there were not...
Wrecks, a massive 19th century Rodgers anchor, huge schools of Bigeye Scad; Bogas; silversides; and creole wrasse. Also, you will experience a massive elkhorn coral, a pregnant scrawled filefish, and more! This episode is a highlight reel of the past week’s diving and it shows you how amazing...
I love shore diving, and I hear Bonaire is the best place to do it, if you want warm clear water with plenty of pretty fish to look at. I'm looking for a place to spend 2 months each winter, for the next 10 years or so. Maybe not always the same place, although would make it easy if I found a...

Occasionally, we get a little too close to our subjects and this big, beautiful, frogfish (roughly 18cm long) let us know. Needless to say we got out of its way but not after capturing this short video for you. Normally, their defense is their camouflage but when that does not work they put on...
I am planning my 4th trip to Bonaire. In the past I have flown Delta and the ticket prices have always been $750-$850. I have been checking periodically and the prices are now averaging $1,200 - $1,800 (that’s more than I’m paying for an all inclusive week of diving). What gives? Is anyone...
Pristine, critically endangered coral like few have ever seen! Come with us as we take you into Bonaire's restricted Willem Alexander Reserve. Largely untouched and unseen by humans for over 40 years, it is one of two restricted reserves on the island. Yet, STINAPA, Bonaire's National Marine...
