5 more dives with an instructor—perfect for gaining experience while exploring breathtaking dive sites. Every dive brings something new,

Going beyond 18 meters, up to a max of 30. If the Hilma Hooker is on your bucket list (and it should be!), this depth range opens the door to one of Bonaire’s most iconic wreck dives.

Making sense of your compass. You’ve used one before, but now it’s time to really understand it—to confidently navigate Bonaire’s shore dives so you always find your way back to your entry point. No more guesswork, just smooth, stress-free diving.

A night dive on the reef? Yes, but only with an instructor. The idea of diving in the dark is thrilling, but you want guidance from a certified PADI Instructor to make it a safe, magical, and unforgettable experience.
