Since we missed Turkey's 40th birthday last year we decided to plan a dive trip to Bonaire in 2024 as a do over. We stayed at Chogogo Dive & Beach Resort this time diving with Scuba Do Dive Center conveniently located on the resort. We opted for the Dive & Drive package that included two trucks to explore and dive the island.

Beautiful video! I would love to see more (yes, I'll check out your channel and see what else you've got) but without all of the back and forth between divers and reef/fish. I know, everybody's a critic. I'm not really! It just takes a person out of the zone if they are trying to meditate to it. It won't be much longer before video's like these will be all that remains of the reefs so I am very grateful folks like yourselves share like this. Thank you!

Incredible video! Thank you for posting. I’m going to Bonaire for my first time and b-day in July’24. We are staying at Plaza Vander Velk. I’m also decked out in pink like one of your fellow divers. Team Pink! 🧜‍♀️💖

Good to see some visitors that are responsible divers with good form and buoyancy underwater. So many times I see dive tourists crashing into the reefs, breaking soft coral to get 'the shot', etc. Wish we had more good divers like these folks. You are more than welcome back.

Hi, the video was a mix of different locations over 24 dives. With current restrictions we spent most mornings along the northern shore line and then in the afternoon in the south end. We got up as far as Karpata and as south as Red Slave. That said we really enjoyed the usual suspects, Salt Pier, Oil Slick Leap, Something Special, Red Slave, Hilma Hooker ect...

How far along is the Stony Coral Tissue Disease progressed????? When I dived Bonaire last summer it had destroyed corals from the north end of the island all the way down to Kralendijk. Tragic to witness the destruction of thousands of years of coral reef's growth!!! The south end of the island (down toward Salt Pier) was still diveable (in the "Green" zone) but required aggressive rinsing of ALL scuba gear in heavily chlorinated rinse tanks for several minutes followed by rinsing in freshwater tanks to try to prevent the further spread of the disease via transport in divers' gear.

The dive shop gave us a detailed briefing on the state of the coral surrounding the island and education on protective measures such as rinsing gear between sites/zones. Before heading out for the day we checked the local website on status of zone designate and planned accordingly. For the most part we headed north in the morning for two dives and then after lunch went south. This gave us time to wash/rinse gear between.

Did you stay at Chogogo in Bonaire?

Yes we did. It was our first time, normally we stay with Buddy Dive Resort but the pricing was very competitive with the drive and dive package. The report is new and minimalist in design. We had a few bumps at check in as one of the rooms AC did not work but they moved occupants to another room with upgrade at no extra charge. The dive shop was fantastic, very accommodating. The first couple of days we had to cart tanks to the parking lot however when staff noticed they jumped to help out and used their 4 wheeler to bring them for us. Later in the week they had opened up dive lockers that where conveniently located by the trucks making it much easier to come and go. I believe they plan to even install air compressor that would allow you to fill tanks within the same locker area. The restaurants on resort were nice enough but found the beach bar, which shared the same menu to be much nicer atmosphere after a long day of diving. We had originally planned to try out the lazy river that circles the entire resort but did not get back to report in tie before it closed in the evening. From the visitors I witnessed they all seemed to love it.
