I notice you both route your octo's to your left side.

What is your advantage to doing that?

to be honest "its how I was taught " I have since moved to both on the right. keep in mind I am a cold water diver and I have one extra hose hooked up....so really it just depends which ports are used lol.....I notice little to no difference....to be honest....so long its in "the Triangle" it doesn't matter where your gear is.....

Did you consider or stay at any other Condo? I have been many places (Cozumel 10x's, Caymans, Turks, etc) but this will be first trip to Bonaire. Want a sea/oceanview condo near the dive sites. Doesnt have to be fancy just clean and comfortable and reasonably priced.

I considered about 10 places our first time and about 20 places for our upcoming trip. Your wish list sounds like Sand Dollar or Den Laman. Also there are some southern choices that I am less familiar with.....

May I ask what unit you rented at the Sand Dollar? Great photos btw!

Did you use Dive Friends, Bonaire Dive & Adventure, or another operator? How were they?

I've stayed at Sand Dollar several times and then at Den Lamen, have only used BD&A
