bonaire

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...

Hi all, I'm just beginning to investigate getting my 15yo son OW certified. In the ~20 years since I did mine, I still feel like the local pool work + tropical checkout dives is the way to go. While I enjoy diving our local quarry, if I had done my checkout there (40 degrees + 20' viz) , I...

We just published a new video on A Diver's life. It is dedicated to Bruce Bowker and his historic rappel down the Rappel cliff in scuba gear in 1974. The video is largely shot in 4k but scaled to 1080p for Internet delivery. We shot Rappel at night and day time. We take you to the location where...

Love to go to Bonaire once or twice a year and hopefully for extended stays in a couple of years. But right now we can't go and it is messing with my well being. For now all I can do is look at pictures and watch videos. Please post your Bonaire videos. Here is a link to one of mine:

I wanted to take a moment to share a video, I made, on a part of Bonaire that few if anyone ever dives. It is a stretch of reef between Wilemstorem lighthouse and the Red Slave obelisk. Like the Coral Triangle, the area does experience strong currents and waves much of the year which help...

We have got wrecks! Today we take you to one of the most popular dive spots on Bonaire but it is one that you seldom find out about if you only visit Bonaire for short periods. This is the stretch of reef between the dive site of Something Special dive site and the Eden Beach resort. The best...

Bonaire had a recent severe bleaching event. We are recovering today but in the future if the window in which the water stays warm lasts too long we will not, like most places around the world. My non-profit is looking into artificial upwelling as a research project in Bermuda "Artificial...
