If one desires to have morning and afternoon boatdives, what are the best boatdives to go on and do most diveshops go on this dives when asked?

The dive shop at the divi does a 2 tank in the morning and 1 tank in the afternoon. Great dive shop and divemasters. When someone makes a request they will try to accomodate you. They will check with other divers on the boat to see if they have been to that divesite that day depending on whether it is in the morning or afternoon. I have used the diveshop at the divi for my seven trips to bonaire. Can't say enough about the staff!! All the divesites are great. Can't think of one I wouldn't return to. 130+ dives on Bonaire and I have been to several of the dive sites 5+ times and still begging for more. :-)

I think all of the boat operators in Bonaire are not a cattle car operation like in Hawaii or Mexico and are flexible....and they have cuter boat captains in Bonaire! Some post dive sites prior to departure and some are very flexible on location and number of tanks.I would check out Phototour divers and Carib Inn. Phototours give the customer a choice on where to go to and the web cam dive can make a good second tank dive prior to island departure. Chris and Ronald and John do a great job of describing the dive site and knowing the weather conditions can offer up some suggestions, but they ultimately let the custoemrs decide. The nice thing is they are a small outfit so they very personalized service and do not leave anyone behind. The same thing about personalized service can be said about Carib Inn and Larry Baillie who although I have not been on his boat, but mooned it on a few occasions, I have heard numerous wonderful things about his abilities to find seahorses and match the dive sites with the peoples desires for diving.Both of these companies offer excellent unlimited tank rates and I have yet to find a better value for the money on baot and air rates than phototours divers while diving in the US mainland, the Carribean and Hawaii
