Well, that all depends, depends on who you talk to, whether you like boats etc. I always enjoy mixing boat with my shore diving in Bon. A few reasons. Boat dives are cheaper in Bon than anyplace else I have visited. You get to sites you can't get to by shore. You get a different view of the island and depending on where you stay and who you dive with it is easier and less effort than shore (truck).We don't do the boat trips, just shore dives. Are we missing anything?
