Whether
you're old or young, this is an extremely healthy outdoor pursuit, and one that’s suitable for a wide age group. Plus,
there are scuba-diving resorts offered all around the world, at most of your typical vacation destinations offer scuba trips.
However, if you are already a certified diver and want to dip your toes in the sea of life again, now is the
time to rebuild your confidence and gently coax yourself back to the depths at a suitable pace. There's no other sport that can offer more in terms of beauty, exercise, and companionship than scuba.
One of the best places to get back
into the swing of scuba diving is Bonaire – the home of diving freedom. Thanks to gently sloping shores, great diving
is accessible just feet from this Caribbean island’s coral beaches – making it uncomplicated and stress-free.
Bonaire’s 90 dive sites offer great visibility; and divers are also highly likely to see seahorses. Bonaire's pristine
reefs and diverse marine life are unique to the Caribbean. Because the waters around Bonaire are designated as an official
marine park, diving Bonaire is like diving the Caribbean the way it used to be - untouched and unspoiled. The island's location
in the south Caribbean gives it an arid climate with little rainfall; consequently, the waters are exceptionally clear of
silt, calm, and divable year round. It is an ideal destination for underwater photographers. Water temperatures average a
warm 78-84°F, with visibility often averaging over 100 feet, and frequently, up to 150 feet.Crossville Scuba Team frequently visits the Island of Bonaire. Bonaire is world renowned for its excellent
scuba diving and is consistently rated among the best diving and Caribbean diving locations in the world. The Island license
plates carry the logo “Diver’s Paradise”.
