Thanksgiving in Paradise
Where we are diving
Spend Thanksgiving in paradise. With abundant marine life, over 80 official dive sites, and breathtaking views you’ll never want to leave. Bonaire is often referred to as the shore diving capital of the world. Its crystal-clear waters are perfect for any diver at any level. The calm waters allow novice divers to swim parallel to the shore with minimal currents. Advanced divers will enjoy the unlimited shore dives and freedom to explore the ocean floor. Swimming along with the large sponges and sea fans, you’re bound to spot angelfish, butterflyfish, seahorses, crabs, and shrimp.
Each dive site in Bonaire is marked with a large yellow rock with the site name painted on it. This makes it easy for you to hop in the car and just drive to your next site. No plans or schedules. You’re on island time now and the sea is yours.
We will be diving with Divi Dive Bonaire. Their boat’s benches are custom designed to make it easier to set up and take off diving gear, and their wide-open decks provide ample room to walk around. Each ride is limited to 18 passengers, so you never have to worry about crowding.
Large 24-foot camera tables and freshwater camera buckets onboard make it easy to get the perfect shot. Additional features such as twin ladders and wide swim platforms make diving from their boats a real pleasure. They travel to the most popular dive sites on Bonaire such as Red Slave, Karpata, and Margate Bay.
Registration closes soon!
