    One of my favorites is The Lake. Start of the double reef system so you can see both reefs.
    Up north I love Witches Hut. Beautiful dive.

    Great video! We are in Bonaire right now as our 2nd time… my husband and I love The Salt Pier, especially the afternoon dives, saw 2 huge free swimming moray eels, big octopus, scorpion fish, drum fish, bounce school fishes, it is by far our favorite spot!!! ❤

      I second karpata. An exciting way to do it is la danias leap just south of karpata. Hardly need to kick slowly drifting north towards kaparta. Steep and deep wall of coral. My favorite on the island

    What to do when not diving? Believe it or not go to the Bonaire Blond Brewery for the food. Recently, the braised short ribs were spectacular and even better were the Gombas!!! Gombas are shrimp cooked in FRESH garlic and olive oil! Ask for extra bread!!!!

    I dove there in the mid 80's. My favorite dive was a night dive at the city pier. The orange corals were spectacular.

      yes yes yessss!!! salt pier! it’s my fave!

      @@ChristineLozada Actually this was the pier in Kralendijik. At the time in 1984 it was a popular night dive when there were no cruise ships in port. The orange coral blooms at night were specular. Plus there were a lot of tarpon around the pier. I was working for a dive shop in Wisconsin at the time. I was there for a tour of the resorts. This was 40 years ago. I am sure for safety reasons they might allow diving on that pier anymore.

    Silly question: Do they provide rental gear if you don’t have your own. Website said to bring your gear plus weights

    • @DiverSieger
      @DiverSieger 5 місяців тому +1

      There are plenty of dive shops with rental gear, if this shop doesn't provide it (which I doubt) you can always rent gear at another shop and still dive with them. So no need to worry!
