Halfway Through my Bonaire Trip

[deco_martini]

Haven't seen a Frogfish yet, and I've been eyeballing every small out of place sponge I can.....


Tried lovers ice cream. Its the bomb.

Played fish tag with the big tarpon off buddy reef at night.

Ate the Ribs Factory. Enjoyed the ribs and didn't find it expensive.

Dove sweet dreams this afternoon and got to see the soft coral jungle... Impressive.


Any recommendations on finding the Frog Fish or nightlife to take part in before I go would be nice.


Btw, we are the only guests at Golden Reef Inn, every morning Liz cooks our breakfast and we chat over coffee. Good times.

If there are frogfish on Bari Reef, maybe it would be worth a fish ID dive with Jerry to locate them, or otherwise sign up for some boat dive at a place where a DM can find you one or more from past experience.

City Cafe has (or used to have) live music lasting late on weekend nights. The Havana Club was recommended to me on a previous trip, but we never made it there. I wound up drinking with some med-school students one night at a local bar and we didn't finish until 5 a.m., so you can always try befriending some crazed-looking ex-pats if you want a party, or even some crazed-looking locals if you dare.

We were at Sand Dollar in August and saw no frogfish, nor did we hear about any. We did hear rumors to the effect that they had suddenly gotten scarce. Rumors also included the view by some that divers were scaring them off, so some folks were not telling locations, if one was found.
