Starting in 2023, there's a $40 annual fee covering all water activities in Bonaire National Marine Park, including entry to Washington Slagbaai National Park. Purchase yours at www.stinapabonaire.com before you dive into the VIP Diving experience!
VIP Diving is renowned for small groups and as the #1 dive shop on TripAdvisor in Bonaire – our spots fill up fast! Booking early ensures you snag a dive slot. Feeling spontaneous? Give us a shout – today could be your lucky day!
Dive like a pro with VIP Diving's tank options – all sizes, one price, and loaded with weights. Our tanks rock both DIN and Yoke (INT) setups. Go unlimited with our 1-day or 6-day air packages, giving you freedom with Air or Nitrox (32%) options!
Bonaire's weather welcomes year-round diving. High season (mid-Dec to mid-Apr) is bustling – book early! Even in peak times, Bonaire stays chill. September and October heat up with warm, windless days.
If space allows, non-divers can join day trips. Dive sites lack facilities, and non-divers aren't guided. Consider our Discover Scuba Diving program for them.
We're here every single day, 8 AM - 5 PM, ready to make your diving wishes come true. Swing by our drive-thru during those hours too. And when you dive with us, enjoy 24/7 gear room access!
The water temperature varies from approximately 79°F/26°C in February and March to 84°F/29°C in September and October. Our 3 mm shorty wetsuits offer sufficient comfort under these conditions. Please note that wearing gloves is not permitted on Bonaire. Do you need diving equipment? We have everything you need and are happy to help you!
We are proud of our independence and welcome divers from all over the world. We work closely with carefully selected partners on Bonaire. Are you still looking for accommodation or a good restaurant? Check out our partners page. We are happy to help you find the right places.
Your diving adventures can start at age 8 with our PADI Bubblemaker course. Progress to Discover Scuba Diving at age 10, and the Junior Open Water Diver Course. No upper age limit; good health is key.
While most sites are on the west coast, experience the exciting east coast with us or Bonaire East Coast Divers. Ask about bookings and conditions.
Easy-peasy! Pay securely online in advance or swing by our shop to settle up with VISA, Mastercard, AMEX, debit, or good ol' cash.
