I just got back from Bonaire about 2 weeks ago. I can see why this place is ranked number 1. I stayed at the SandDollar. One giant stride off thedock, and a few fin kicks later, I was seeing a beautiful 130+ foot wall, teaming with fish, squid, turtles, eagle rays and octopus. The sanddollar also gives you a truck with you room, so you can load up and shore dive all over the island. If you are a pretty experieced diver, you HAVE to go over and dive with Larry on the Wild Side. Our first dive over there, we lost count of how many eagle rays and turtles and green moreys we saw. I would highly recommned Bonaire and the SandDollar.
