You mean "Red Slave"?Karpata's great, I also preferred "Red Hut" down by the lighthouse. Current was a bit stronger but I saw most ever down there every time.
'bout 100 dives so far, mostly Cozumel, but BVI, Caymans, Akumal too. We'll do both boat and shore dives. I figured it would be best to get oriented that way. Next time....Are you a new diver or more experienced? Bonaire is all about shore diving. Don't really need any boat diving unless you do a dive or 2 off Klein Bonaire. The stronger current tends to be closer to the tips of the island. In any event, the night dive at town pier is a must. And my personal favorite was Oil Slick Leap. We did it at like 3pm or 4pm and the day creatures started to go in and the night creatures to come out. Andreas 1 and 2 are good. There is a family of squid that lives there. Of course the Hilma Hooker if you are AOW. Other favorites are pink beach, bachelor's beach, ole blue, witches hut, buddy's reef. Hey ...they're all great!
