Does the Divi have soap/shampoo/conditioner? I am asking since we are limited to 44lbs on DAE airlines, and I'm trying to pack VERY light.

Should I bring my heavy dive light or rent one?

Can I just bring empty pages from Dive log instead of the whole book? Must I have the original C-dards, or are copies sufficient?

Is a safety sausage useful or a waste of space?
Thanks.

I would bring your C card but we always bring one sausage but rarely use it in Bonaire.

Deborah..Bring your original C card.
Don't really know about the "heavy" divelight. Personally I use a small hand held & it works fine. No need to bring a million watt lantern underwater.
Dive Log is for your own personal use if you so desire. I haven't used one in several decades..
Safety sausage I 've never used..
Have fun!

Deborah, I would suggest going to Chat n Browse, and picking up some Aruba Aloe shampoo and conditioner ! It's always my first stop. :-)

I leave the conditioner in my hair and don't rinse it out for some extra help with the salt in the saltwater.

hair dryers are provided. since I am a snorkeler I find it really easy to go to Bonaire for a week with only a carry on.

I am looking for any information that would be useful. this is our first trip to Bonaire/Divi Flamingo. I am especially interested in some place that will braid my hair. thanks

Divi has a hair salon on premises. A friend of mine had her hair braided and she looked great, but that was a few years back.
Try e-mailing the office down there to find out.
My "standard" is a "pony tail" with a covered rubber band with a braid for my long hair.
