Shore Diving Made Easy Book

[Brodydog]

Since it is your first time to Bonaire I would recommend that you get one of the books!

Thanks Pinkerton. I do have the "Bonaire Shore Diving Made Easy" book, it just isn't the latest edition. Was just trying to figure out if the new edition had any useful new material. I plan to use it just like you said to plan my days out with what sounds interesting.

Thanks to all for your replies.

Even an older edition is fine.

Also at some sites other divers make piles of the coral rubble indicating the best entry point they found. I can't say that we always found the best entry near the yellow rock - at one site south at least, we drove in by the rock but dove at least 200' farther south - looked like an easier crawl over the ironshore. YMMV.

Some sites have sand channels leading out to deeper water - the best example I've seen to illustrate this is Vista Blue's picture on shorediving.com. I've geared up on that same rock and walked in on sand till I was floating:
