Has any one done the padi rescue course in bonaire? I am thinking of taking it on this nov. trip. I am a little concerned of how much time it will take up. I do not want to miss those great reefs and photo opps. I do not seem to be getting a staight awnser on how many hours a day of the in the water part of the course I can expect.

Mike, most of the dive operations will run a rescue course. If you have decided which dive shop you are diving from get in touch with them directly. They should know all the answers and if they don't find a different dive shop! Best of luck with it!

Just a quick note. Last July, I had looked into doing the Rescue course on Bonaire. They do indeed require CPR (which I have) and First Aid. I was going to try to take the first aid here, and wanted to do the self study and then do the dive work on Bonaire. After several inquiries to several shops on Bonaire, you have to take the full Rescue course from them (book work, diving, etc.) In other words, if you did buy the materials here, you would still have to buy them there and go through their entire course (at least that is what I was told).
