First dive in Bonaire!

I'd add another tip - pack your Crocs when staying in locations with tile floor that will be wet. I keep them on patio and slip on before entering condo, wear them till I jump in shower, then step out and right back into Crocs again.

I, too, use Crocs a lot, but would pass along some advice I got from my mother's boss that proved true; once Crocs get old & worn, their soles can get smooth and if you get on a wet, smooth surface, slick & a fall hazard.

I found this to be true.

I love reading all these tips! Some of my travel tips:
- Pack a zip lock baggie or a bar of laundry detergent. Good for freshening up swimsuits etc. in between laundering.
- Burn some CD's for your trip. It is dirt cheap and ideal for listening to when driving(especially to dive sites). I hide mine in the automobile manual/booklet. Although I think my husband would actually pay somebody would steal my ABBA CD.
- I have had great luck with Picaradin (found on Amazon)as a bug repellant. Used it in Roatan and not a single bite-plus it is virtually odorless.
-Take an abundance of pictures. I remember my Mom once instructed me to get a lot of people pics. She said "You can always find a photograph of the landscape and scenery, but the people pics are replaceable. At the time what you think is a terrible and unflattering photo is one that will make you smile and laugh down the road." Very true!

Great post guys! This was a great trip, I'll write a review soon detailing some of my interactions with the dive shop. Bonaire is my new favorite place to dive, but i doubt I would stay at Plaza again.
