Hello all, I am traveling to Bonaire during the week of March 26 for the first time. Very excited to be visiting. My question is I have only 4 days to dive. Which dive sites would you recommend for the first time visitor and we are both open water certified diver, a novice to intermediate experience level. I would like to see at least a turtle and may be sting rays/manta rays and dolphins if possible. I would appreciate your advice.

Meehyun, on Klein Bonaire I like Joanne's Sunchi and on a night dive at Salt Pier we saw two eagle rays.

Here's a shot I took of a Manta at 1000 steps in August of 2000. I hope this works, it will be the first image I've posted.

Lou, how about a few details on that shot? time of day, etc. We'd all like to see some Bonaire mantas.

Chris, who works at Photo Tours and is Jessie Armacost's hubby, saw a whale shark at Divi Tree today. He was apparently speechless for hours afterwards. The student he had out was thrilled, of course.
