Any tips or suggestions? It's my first time out there so I'm really stoked about it. I won't be carrying a camera with me.

I think Todd's there now (or all next week).
 
WOW. going to Bonaire without a camera... OMG

Good luck, I haven't dove there YET, but plan on doing it as soon as I can
 
No suggestions that you haven't heard already- make sure you hit the Salt Pier and the dives on the south end of the island (Alice and Wonderland and the like). The shallow dives behind all the dive resorts (across from Klein Bonaire) are cool.

Other than that- have fun and explore - it's hard to get a bad dive on Bonaire!
 
I'm going during Spring break next year. I am so looking forward to it. Pls writeup your findings.
 
I leave the 14th of July...for 8 days...YEAH!!

No camera..you will regret it....anyway Karpata at the North end for sure. You have to do 1000 steps to say you climbed 'em...do Alice in Wonderland, Hilma Hooker, Red Slave, and DO NIGHT DIVES!!!! Bari Reef at the Sand Dollar and take Charlie the Tarpon out on a walk and let him eat with you as you dive..

I can tell ya a bunch more..Some Good ones over on Klein Bonaire as well...

No bad dives there at all.

Have fun!
 
I'm sure I could get some nice shots if I did have a camera, but don't want to mess with it. I don't have one and don't really want to buy one right now. There will be plenty of others with cameras there, so I'll let them take all the shots. I don't really regret not having one on any of my past trips - just more time to devote my attention to the things going on around me.

I did get a light for night diving and do plan to go out on several night dives. I'll write down all the spots you guys mentioned as I won't be getting online at all while there. I don't want to even look at a monitor while I'm gone! Will try to post a full trip report once I get back for certain. My log is still in use even though I don't log every dive so I make lots of notes on things I see in the dives I do log. This trip I plan to log each dive - probably in a notebook so I have room to write everything.

Can't wait! Not really looking forward to the travel there and back but definitely am excited about being there. I hear they do up July 4th for us folks from the US. Not sure what all goes on, but I'll let you know what I find out.

:D
