What level of diver is this trip for?

All levels, easy shore & boat diving. Not sure if it's the right fit? Niki will talk it through with you.

Can I still do this trip?

This was a past SXT departure to Bonaire. We run adventures like it regularly, so contact us about the next departure or a custom version designed for your own group.

Is this good for solo travelers?

Absolutely. SXT trips attract friendly, like-minded travelers, and many guests arrive solo and leave with a whole new crew of dive buddies.

Do you handle flights and logistics?

Yes. SXT concierge takes care of flights, transfers, documents, and the little details, so all you have to do is show up and soak it in.

Bonaire: Shore-Diving Capital of the Caribbean

A week of dive-when-you-want freedom on the island's legendary reefs

Bonaire is the shore-diving capital of the Caribbean, and we dove it to the fullest, Bari Reef, Salt Pier, the Hilma Hooker wreck, 1000 Steps and Alice in Wonderland, with reef-restoration dives at Klein Bonaire and night dives under the pier.

Why you will love this trip

What makes this trip special, and why travelers choose to come back.

Shore diving on your own schedule

A whole island ringed by protected reef, pickup trucks on standby, and no clock telling you when to get wet. Bonaire's freedom is real, and once you taste it, no boat schedule will do.

Hilma Hooker wreck and Salt Pier pillars

Descend to a famous freighter resting between two reef systems, then hover at the Salt Pier while schools of fish swirl around massive encrusted columns. Two classics in a single day is routine here.

Reef restoration at Klein Bonaire

Roll up your sleeves on a hands-on coral restoration dive at Klein Bonaire. It is conservation in the middle of paradise, and the reefs you help today are the ones you dive tomorrow.

Night dives under the pier

After dark, the reef becomes a completely different world. Slip beneath the pier and watch the nocturnal cast emerge in a spectacle that resets the whole dive clock.
