I will be in Bonaire in February and want to know if i will be able to do my certification dives there. How much it will cost? And the best dive shop/master to go to complete these dives. We tried to do them this past weekend in upstate NY and it wasnt a good thing. I am just recovering from a severe head cold, etc. thanx for the help.

Most shops charge around $200 for referral certs. Upstate NY? I thought all the lakes were frozen over by now. Where are you staying?

Hi, Dale:
We're also from Upstate NY (Rochester) and will be in Bonaire Feb 13 - March 12. Where in Upstate are you?
We were in Bonaire this February, but only snorkled. This time, I'm hoping to be diving for the first time, but although I went through the first part of dive training a couple of years ago but never did the open water, I think I'll start from scratch again. I haven't decided if I'll do anything up here or just wait until I'm in Bonaire, as we have four weeks there. My husband probably won't be diving, I might need a buddy, if you're interested and the timing is appropriate.

PS to Michael: Upstate NY gets no respect. I was out raking leaves today and it was 60 degrees and just lovely. Of course, it could also have been 5 degrees and a blizzard!! That's what we love about this area --- it's totally unpredictable. You also notice we're planning to get out for a month....
