What a treat it is to dive with the folks at VIP Diving. Bonaire diving is always a pleasure but diving with VIP brings things to another level. Safety is of the utmost of importance and dive briefings are always thorough and accurate. I have been diving Bonaire for almost 10 years now and I always dive with the folks... More

If you are looking for a tailored, personal, informative, and friendly diving experience, you've come to the right place. Communication prior to arriving on the island was quick and helpful. We already had great service before we even arrived. The whole purpose of coming to Bonaire, for us, was to relax and dive the entire week at our own pace.... More

We got a hint from Dutch people to visit the tarpons guided by VIP Diving. Only the 2 of us left for Cai at the east coast with guides Bob and Frank. Very relaxed and enthusiastic guys who showed us all interesting stuff like tarpons, turtles, 10 (!) big green murenes and an eagle ray. On forehand Bob told us... More

Yes, of course you can dive on Bonaire by yourself, without bringing along a local expert diver from VIP who knows all the best places to go, can set up the perfect drift dives, provide the identification of almost every fish and coral, point out the habitual locations of the coolest sea creatures, take you to gorgeous views off the...

everyone was very friendly and my instructor was the kindest person. Went above and beyond what I expected or even what I payed for. Will absolutely do it again when I visit ;)

Excellent diving school, great instructors and guides! I’m always a little suspicious when something has only 5-star ratings on Tripadvisor, but these guys really deserve them. We followed a 4 day open water course with Bob as our instructor in March. Very personal approach (it were only the two of us and Bob), very professional and very safe diving school.... More

We just finished our open water course with Bob as our instructor. It was an incredible four days! Here are some things that make VIP diving one of a kind: 1) Small classes (it was just the two of us in our case) - very individualized attention. They pride themselves on their small class size to really focus on making... More

I did some guided dives with another experienced diver. They listen to your wishes and stay in the water as long as your air will last, within safety zones of course (and in contrast to some other dive schools,who will dive with you for a maximum of 45 minutes: check it out before you book!) They dive only in little... More

My friend and I were on a cruise ship that stopped at Bonaire. She is a scuba diver and I am a beginner snorkeler. We got off the ship and started talking to the tour companies. We then met Bob from VIP Diving. Bob is from Holland and a very experienced dive instructor. He had one other driver and was... More

Overall, VIPDiving is a very professional and safe school. They have very well maintained gear. Our instructor, Bas, a very nice relaxed guy, is also an island tourguide. He told us everything about the island, both diving-related as well as non-diving but Bonaire related. The most inportant positive thing about VIPDiving is that they have small groups and the customers... More
