Enforced diving restrictions All dive operations in Bonaire are required to limit diving based on areas. Areas are divided into Red, yellow and green in an attempt to limit the spread of SCTLD. As the areas are right next to each other the attempt to prevent spread of the disease is worthless.
Liveaboard? no Nitrox Available? yes
