Me and my husband are on a count down 3 1/2 weeks. I was just wondering what the current weather and water temps are like. Any info would be appreciated thanks

You can look at the current air temperatures at Flamingo airport at

If you scroll down and look at the far right hand side you can get information about weather activity.

We were there about 3 weeks ago, and the water temps were about 82-84 degrees F. Weather is pretty much the same all year round: daytime highs in the mid/upper 80's to lower 90's, nights maybe 10 degrees cooler. While it is technically the "rainy season" on Bonaire, it IS an arid, desert climate. While it's always possible that there will be some extended rain, the much more likely scenario is a chance of brief showers (often in one part of the island and not another) or even brief downpours, sunny and VERY hot most of the time. While there are periods of wind reversals or no wind, the overwhelming majority of the time there is a nice, cooling breeze from the east.

HD, I am on Bonaire and I finished my last dives (for this two week trip) today. Water and air temps were similar to what Scott reported. Most evenings and many afternoons:-), I opened windows on opposite sides of my room, ran a fan and slept comfortably. While driving I used the "open windows" method of air conditioning:-)

I hope you enjoy your visit.
