Wannadive goes coco's ! Not even ten years ago Bart and Bob started Wannadive as many of you guys know. They always reminded themselves, year after year, at there ' management-sessions' @ some of the tradeshow-nights in Orlando, Vegas or Neworleans, that if the whole thing didn't go bankrupt before oktober 4th 2010 ; "we do a divetrip to the Coco's Island Marine Park of the coast of Costa Rica" . Apperently THE Best diving in the world ! Well ... we all know we shouldn't let them go by them selves J Not because you would like to give them guidance, but exactually just because we know a lot of you wanna see what they will see ... probably they be diving with sharks ... and a lot of them !

Have a great "Dive" in to 2010 and keep on bringing back the fun!

Blue Moon

Bonnie gave us some interesting news .... read this! Here's an interesting fact, You've heard of "Once in a blue moon"?  Well, this month on the 31st there will be a Blue Moon, It occurs about once every 33 months, a blue moon is the second full moon in one month, the first full moon occurred on Dec. 2nd.  Folklore gives the Blue Moon a face that speaks to those who look at her, and it is rumored that on a blue moon it is the one time that a woman can propose marriage to her lover.  Since the moon also affects the earth's tides, we can expect some rough seas and more dramatic tide shifts around the end of the month. What a cool way to celebrate New Year's Eve.

Update website!

As many frequent site visitors may have noticed already, we changed and updated our website. It is now much easier to book us through our new menu button ‘book us’. Under this button we explain how easy it is to book us, direct, thru our partners, or thru a carefully selected travel agency. Under ‘fun stuff’ you will find our forum, guest book, a dive log where you can describe your experience at specific dive sites so as to help other divers, a buddy finder service, and completely new; a detailed dive map.

Check it out and enjoy the changes!

Merry Christmas

We wish everybody a Merry Christmas !!!

Dolphins!!!!

Dolphins spotted ... read this great story from our guests Hans, Nicole and Hester, who where so lucky to swim with dolphins yesterday!. Just another sunny day in Paradise, riding south along the Hilma Hooker to go diving @ Margate Bay. We where talking about how busy it was at the Hilma Hooker as we saw them. Dolphins….. Just along the coast, you could see the fins above the water and two of them where even jumping around. Hans stepped on the accelerator and drives as fast as he can to “Invisibles”, we took our masks, fins and snorkels and run into the water, swim like crazy people to get to them. A famous sound came to us,  the dolphin beeping noises. And suddenly we see them under water. It is a group of 20 and they are swimming along us on both sides. We can almost touch them. One is swimming 3 feet away from us. AMAZING !!!! After they passed we got out of the water and followed them to three different dive sites, Salt City, Pink Beach and Margate Bay. As Margate Bay was our original plan for diving this day. It is really an indescribable feeling. We where still screaming of all the adrenaline when we came out of the water. Really amazing and we have some great pictures to share with you.   Check out the gallery for the rest of the pictures!

Emma already made new friends!

Hello everyone, I want to tell you about my good friend here on Bonaire. He asked me if i wanted to write a story about him (his internet connection is not great down under) so he would get some more visitors in his nice villa.   My friends name is Billy and he is a spiny head blenny. He lives in a city that is called wannadive windsock. He has a wonderful rock villa where he lives with his wife Dora and their kids Donny and Jo. I met them too when I visit Billy. His kids are adorable!   I was there last Thursday to drink a cup of sea grass juice with Billy in his villa and he told me the story of his life. That he was born in the rock on coral way 12, just around the block from were he lives now. And that he was raised by his mum and dad. One day he saw Dora and he fell directly in love with her. So you know, a typical love story. Bought a house together and now they have 2 kids.   Everything nice until Billy got a new neighbor. Jane the seahorse. As you all know... She is a celebrity. What am i saying, not just A celebrity, THE celebrity of the windsock city! Billy told me how his life has changed since this new neighbor. Before Jane moved to the coral tree 8 (next to Billy’s rock villa some funny bubble makers paid attention to Billy and his family and took pictures of him, but after, nobody ever comes by anymore.   He said to me: Emma i want you to get me back in the picture again. I know i won't be a celebrity, but at least bubble makers can stop by to say hi to me.   So here is a message for all the Jane fans. If you are down to visit Jane, stop by at my friend to say hi. He would really appreciate that!
