Product Description
ever been to Bonaire? Not sure what you might see when you get there? Maybe you are looking for the perfect diving vacation and Bonaire is one of your choices, whatever the case is the Lonely Planet Guide for Diving and Snorkeling Bonaire is a great way to find out what you need to know to make your vacation a memorable event. Bonaire's worldwide appeal to divers is its amazing reef-lined coast, all of which is a national park. But while no diving (or snorkeling) initiate will be disappointed, Bonaire also has much to offer above the surface, including world-class windsurfing. Although the beaches are mostly slivers of rocky sand, several take on a pink hue from ground coral washed ashore. Also in the pink are the flamingos found throughout the salt flats and mangroves of the south. Located in the north of Venezuela, Bonaire is a paradise for divers and snorkelers of all levels. This guidedescribes the best sites to explore, from beautiful reefs to sunken wrecks.

3 out of 5 stars THE PHOTOS ARE NICE - DIVE DESCRIPTIONS COULD BE BETTER   November 3, 2009
JWH (Texas)
0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I HAVE BEEN USING THE BONAIRE SHORE DIVING MADE EASY book for several years. I found the overall dive descriptions (shore entries, conditions, etc) to be better in this book than in the diving & snorkeling Bonaire book.

The diving & snorkeling Bonaire book also contains some misleading medical advice. For example - the Sea Urchin paragraph states that you should avoid contact with sea urchins (very true). It then states that you should treat by administering CPR until the pain subsides. Interesting advice!

The photos are the best part of the book.

This book comes in at a far away 2nd place to Susan Porter's "Bonaire Shore Diving Made Easy" "BSDME"


4 out of 5 stars Good book for shore diving   November 29, 2008
A. Brown (Broomfield, CO United States)
This book does have good descriptions on the various dive sites (shore and boat) in Bonaire - we read the summary the book had before our 25 dives last trip. Only thing that is lacking is some good overall Bonaire info, like resturants, places to stay, and map.


5 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Take-Along Guide   November 7, 2008
ROGERTOPSHELF
With the wonderful photography and great overall general information on Bonaire, this book us a very useful pre-trip planner. It also makes a terrific pocket guide to take along to all the shore dive sites around the island. The site names and indexing agrees with the local site markings and the dive descriptions are right-on!

A highly recommended take-along companion for your Bonaire trip.



5 out of 5 stars Outstanding guide to Diver's Paradise   September 7, 2008
Alan S. Preston (Philadelphia, PA USA)
We bought this book after our first trip to Bonaire and before our second, and it was an excellent guide with just the right amount of detail and some very helpful tips that we didn't already know. I highly recommend it.
