I will be taking my 13 year old son on his first dive trip in the beginning of August and thought Bonaire would be a great place to experience his first real dive. We will be traveling from the west coast via AA which will force us to stay in San Juan a night and a good part of the next day. Are there any places/activities one may suggest in San Juan that would interest a teenager? This board is awesome and have learned so much - thanks to all those that have posted!

Mark, do a search for San Juan under "keyword search" at the bottom of this page. Then search in "getting to bonaire" and "everything else" categories. There is LOTS of info on the topic as it has been discussed many times.

As a left coaster who is a Bonaire addict, you will love it and so will your son!

I've moved this tread from trip reports to everything else.
