Dive Bonaire with friends you never knew you had and make some memories!

It’s time for our annual dive trip and this year we are headed to Captain Don’s Habitat in Bonaire (July 2012)!  This will be my 8th time in Bonaire and it never gets boring or repetitious.  The diving is the easiest I’ve ever done, visibility is great, water is warm, and the resort is perfect for dive groups!  I would love for you to join us as we already have a fantastic group of people joining us!  This trip is designed for everyone – families (children under 12 are FREE!), singles, new divers, veteran divers, and snorkelers.

Half of our group is arriving on July 25th and the other half is arriving on July 28th. We are all leaving on August 4th making it a 7 night or 10 night stay!

My dive/hotel packages start at $600 which is a FANTASTIC deal!  I would love to send you all of the information so just email me an inquiry!

I also have an amazing air contract with Insel Airlines flying out of Charlotte, NC and getting into Bonaire via Curacao.  Normally, we pay $700 – $1,000 but with this contract you will pay UNDER $500 and there are even better prices for senior citizens and children under 11!  You cannot beat these prices!
