Hi all, I'm just beginning to investigate getting my 15yo son OW certified. In the ~20 years since I did mine, I still feel like the local pool work + tropical checkout dives is the way to go. While I enjoy diving our local quarry, if I had done my checkout there (40 degrees + 20' viz) , I...

The video is largely shot in 4k but scaled to 1080p for Internet delivery. We shot Rappel at night and day time. We take you to the location where...

Love to go to Bonaire once or twice a year and hopefully for extended stays in a couple of years. But right now we can't go and it is messing with my well being. For now all I can do is look at pictures and watch videos. Please post your Bonaire videos. Here is a link to one of mine:

I wanted to take a moment to share a video, I made, on a part of Bonaire that few if anyone ever dives. It is a stretch of reef between Wilemstorem lighthouse and the Red Slave obelisk. Like the Coral Triangle, the area does experience strong currents and waves much of the year which help...

We have got wrecks! Today we take you to one of the most popular dive spots on Bonaire but it is one that you seldom find out about if you only visit Bonaire for short periods. This is the stretch of reef between the dive site of Something Special dive site and the Eden Beach resort. The best...

Bonaire had a recent severe bleaching event. We are recovering today but in the future if the window in which the water stays warm lasts too long we will not, like most places around the world. My non-profit is looking into artificial upwelling as a research project in Bermuda "Artificial...

Just spent a week on Bonaire and did business with Wannadive South (EEG 3 Boulevard). Excellent experience in every way! I was a Bonaire and shore diving newbie, and a little nervous about it. But owner/operator Bart Snelder is so welcoming and helpful; and the shop so pristine and organized...

I posted this review on the Undercurrent Members Review as well. It was one "Incredible Vacation" After hearing so much about the quality of SCUBA diving Bonaire, we had to give it a go. The wives don't dive, so we booked Delfins Beach Resort at Punt Vierkant just south of BIA. There has been a...
