Comments Buddy Dive Resort continues to be one of the best bargains available, with its free nitrox, drive-through tank pickup/drop-off facility for unlimited shore diving, and inclusion of a free vehicle for each room. Bonaire's reefs are still a bit above average by Caribbean standards, with abundant fish and small critters.
