[None]Excellent week at Divi Dive Bonaire, at Divi Flamingo in Bonaire.
Went with our dive shop, Wateree Dive Center in Columbia, SC and had great
trip. Conditions were fine, viz fair to good, but with the great corals,
the viz did not have to be great. Had extremely good dive masters, Rofino
and Laurel, who were superb. The boats were good, could dive our own
profiles, within reason, and saw a tremendous variety of great coral reef
life. Large green morays, free swimming, were seen on several dives, both
at Klein Bonaire and on the mainland. Sea horses and multiple other small
critters make this a great place to go. Able to walk to town (10 minutes)
and downtown food usually good and priced fairly reasonable. This was our
fourth trip to Divi Flamingo and we'll return.
