We will have our first stay now on Bonaire and decided to rent a private condo. Any suggestions for a car rental/dive package (unlimited shore diving/maybe nitrox)?
Or is this not possible?

thanks

most dive operators offer unlimited shore diving but i'm not aware of a rental company that is associated with a dive operator except buddy dive but you said you're renting a private condo. maybe the people you're renting from could recommend something.

Tuepfel: as pat mentioned there are no known car-rental/dive partnerships. The car and the air usually come with the lodging arrangements.

I would recommend buying your air-package from decent shop such as Bonaire Dive and Adventure if you end up staying near them. The island is dotted with decent dive shops and at the end you chose the one closer to you. If you want to go for early morning or late evening dives, make sure that the shop you sign up with will have tanks available during the hours you prefer to dive.

You may request quotes for a car rental from here.

Dive Friends has Nitrox for the same price as air if you do a six day package. Last year Nitrox fills were always at least 3200 psi at Yellow Sub near town.

Dive Friends is a really convenient option since you can use all of their locations. Their prices are also quite competitive.
