We have been diving for 5 years and have had some excellent dive experiences in Cozumel and Belize (We also had one of the worst in Belize). Also dove in Tobago 2 years ago. I am wondering how Bonaire compares to these locations, we are considering a dive vacation in late February and so far Bonaire has the vote. I realize that some damage has been done due to Lenny but was wondering if Bonaire compares in variety, quality and accessibilty. We are not wimps and the comments about having to trek your gear do not worry me, I am mostly concerned with the total package and how everyone views the conditions not only in the water but on shore. Also what is the current condition regarding viz and how that compares to normal. Where are some of the best places to stay for shore and boat diving (post Lenny)? I am really looking forward to a peaceful dive vacation and a very candid answer to my questions would be appreciated.

I can only compare it to Cozumel.

Diane: The shore dives are very easy entry on most dives and the only dive where trecking your equipment is a pain is 1000 steps (actually about 70 steps) But well worth the extra work. I have dove in Tahiti, Morea, Bora Bora, Cayman, and southern California as well as 3 times to Bonaire.
