Comments Toucan Diving Bonaire
Located in an all-inclusive resort and welcome outside divers. We did not stay in the resort. They run three boats with a max of 12 divers. 12 is crowded but doable. Well, run operation with professional staff from all over the world. The staff goes out of their way to let guests choose the dive sites. We had our own gear so info on rental gear. Two boat dives in the morning with a minimum of 2 divers needed to depart at 8:00 am. One afternoon dive at 2:00 pm each day and one night dive scheduled each week. Safety conscious and work hard to take care of the reef. No gloves, no pointers, and no touching are basic rules. Part of the diving is done in a marine preserve so fees apply for entry.

Typical Caribbean diving only the reefs are in better shape than most other places. Nothing stands out in the diving to note.
