We will be at Gooode Resort. Just the wife and I. We like being up away from the hustle and bustle, such as it is on Bonaire.....

We are staying at a private house, Cat sitting.... A hard job, But someone needs to feed and love these cats...

And some more good news ... We are renting tanks from Dive Friends and every tank is 3000psi or better...

Well the cats are feed, Off to the Hilma hooker...

I can echo this. 4 of us just got back from 2 weeks on Bon, diving 3-4 dives/day. Nitrox consistently 31-32%, fills over 3000. I only had to replace 2 o-rings!!

DFB has upped their game...

Just a fast note to all you scuba board people thinking of Bonaire.... One word.... Come.... Forget the horror stories... Only been on the Island for 5 days and we are having the time of other lives...

The diving is very good and the people are very nice... Crime ? Where ? doesn't look like people are to worried... The dive shop left 4 BC's and Regulator set out in the open after locking up for the night... They did take the valve handle for the shower though... The reefs are beat up in some spots but are growing back strong.... More fish then you can count.... From large parrot / Angles to the smallest little bennies... Yesterday we saw three turtles at the salt pier and the day before had a really cool swim with 3 spotted eagle rays.. A good amount of soft anemones... Diving does not get any easier then this if shore diving is your thing...

Well off to dive....

Jim...

Then why on earth are you wasting time on SubaBoard instead of diving your ass off?

Avoidance of the bends as a result of zero SI would be my guess....

Just dove the Hilma Hooker.... Not a Frick'n lionfish for dinner... I guess it's steak on the grill...

Oh... At the Hilma dive spot one couple did say that someone went through their pick-up.... They also said... As they we're going in, Two young divers where coming out and they think it may have been them ? But, They didn't want her underwear and water bottle.... HER WORDS.....

Jim....

Off for a sunset dive at windsock.... Life is so hard here.....

I need to know if I should pack my spear or not...

Not if you want to use it...

Spear fishing: Spear fishing and the possession of spear fishing equipment is prohibited. If you have a spear gun please leave it with the Customs Office while you are on Bonaire.

Oh, definitely make sure to do the Town Pier night dive - some of the most vibrant colors you'll ever see!

You can't any longer. It's pretty much been closed since the cruise ships started arriving. The pier was extended and the cruise ships move out on thrusters so I doubt there's much left that isn't all silted over. Or if there's a naval vessel tied up.
