OK. I'm in! Who else is going to take the plunge? The Bonaire Dive Festival is an annual event sponsored by the Tourism Board and many other groups. This year Phillippe Cousteau Jr. (Jacques' grandson) is going to be leading some seminars!

:) I can't go either and I love Bonaire. Been there twice in the short time I've been diving and I'll be back. Great shore diving and the boat diving around Klein Bonaire is great to. One of my favorite shore dives is Oil Slick and my favorite over at Klein was Forrest. But most of the dives there are real good. I stayed at Buddy Dive both times and there house reef is a real nice dive. Although it can be crowded if you head towards Capt. Don's
