Hi Folks,
My wife and I will be going to Bonaire in April - staying at the Carib Inn for three weeks. We have a few questions both about the place and the diving and I was wondering if those that have stayed there would be able to offer some info.
We plan to pack very light - are there laundry facilities at the Inn or nearby?
We will also not likely have a vehicle for the entire time - are there grocery stores and resturants within walking distance?
For when we don't have the vehicle we will probably go on a boat dive or two - will the Carib Inn allow diving without the DM (I'm an underwater photographer and like to go slow - don't worry, my wife is into slow as well!)?
Finally, how is their rental gear? We could bring our own if that would be a better option (trying to save weight in the bags).
We are really looking forward to going - I've been hearing great things about Bonaire ever since I worked in Grand Cayman as a dive Instructor in '84-'85, but have just never had the chance or made it a priority until now!
Thanks.
Lee
