I posted the following in that thread, but will share it here too, as it might help others:
While this is not exactly a health/fitness post, I realized that the mention of balance is important.
With a bad leg, Bonaire shore diving could often pose difficulties for me because of my bad balance.
When visiting Bonaire I learned to bring a folding walking stick, stowed in a mesh pouch that clips on my back plate.
Having that 3rd leg sure helps on entries and exits!
Also, and this may have already been mentioned earlier and elsewhere, but full foot fins are NOT a good option for shore diving. Boots with tough soles which help with footing and protect your feet, and spring or strap fins work best for Bonaire's most popular style of diving.
Are we there yet?
