Diving in Bonaire
it is now some 30 years since we first took our scuba dive certificates in Cyprus. Shameful to say we have not dived since then! But that can be fixed - in the Dutch Antilles the island Bonaire is dedicated to diving with 50+ dive sites many easily accessed direct from the shore. The island is also surrounded by beautiful corral reefs and the entire underwater area is a protected nature park. To be on the safe side we decided to update our PADI Open water dive certificates in a 4 day course at Buddy Dive resort. During our stay we did 12 reef dives including one thrilling night dive. My Pentax K-3 lacks underwater housing so most o the photos are from above the surface. However I did rent a simple Canon camera for one of the dives - really challenging.
