      We always use the drive through to get and replace tanks. Staff are always kind and have a smile. Tanks are typically good and if you get one with a leaky handle or o-ring they exchange it easily for you.

      Dive friends in general for the number and locations on Bonaire is second to none. We always choose dive friends for our cylinders. The Sand dollar location like all locations have friendly employees and it's clear to see they enjoy working to help there customers. We just returned from Bonaire and already have booked our dive resort along with dive friends for next years trip.

      We had an absolutely incredible experience diving with Dive Friends Bonaire for the past week! From start to finish, the entire team made our trip easy, fun, and unforgettable. Before we even arrived, Daniel and Alyssa in reservations were super responsive and patient. When we checked in, Charlie and Luigi welcomed us with warmth and professionalism, which set the tone for the whole week. The dives themselves were beyond amazing. We did a dusk dive, two night dives, and more boat dives than I can count. The crew kept every dive fun and safe while pointing out incredible sea life—everything from turtles and eels to some of the coolest critters we’ve ever seen underwater. Special thanks to the amazing dive team: Ilse, Roan, Tessa, Andy, Luigi, Mona, Constance, Emily, Liam, and Jack. Each one brought a mix of expertise, enthusiasm, and good humor that made every dive memorable. They were patient with us when needed, encouraged us to try new things, and clearly loved what they do—it shows. Renting tanks for our own shore dives was easy and quick. These staff also gave great recommendations for our dives, as well as non-diving activities. Between the professional setup, great gear, fantastic boats, and the kind of staff who treat you like friends, it’s hard to imagine a better dive operation. We’ll be back without a doubt, and we’ll be recommending Dive Friends to anyone coming to Bonaire!

      I could not possibly have found a better dive shop. Dive Friends is a pretty large dive operation, but it didn't feel like one. We went in to several of their locations for fresh tanks, water, etc. Everyone was super nice, helpful, and friendly. We took the Avelo RAD certification here. Loved the experience!

      Thank you Sebastian a.k.a. (boss) for your excellent advice and service!!! We showed up at dive friends last minute, off the celebration cruise ship, and wanted to go diving. Although everything was booked up everywhere else. Even here. Sebastian came up with a plan for us. He helped us rent a truck really quick, loaded it up with quality gear and tanks, and then put us onto his favorite spots. It was absolutely amazing!!! That dude was the best... Thank you dive friends and especially you Sebastian... We can't wait to see you again.

      We had a great experience on Bonaire with Dive Friends. While initially nervous about diving unsupervised, having diven with guides previously, we were supported by a great team of kind people! Creating a comfortable space to push yourself to be a more independent, confident diver. Our boat tours with Mona, Tessa, Liam and Andy were also great and gave us the chance to see the gorgeous protected reefs of Bonaire. Great locations, great staff. Definitely a recommend!

Was able to rent equipment on a day by day basis, so only payed for the days I went diving. They kept my gear handy in a “scuba-ritto” for quick pick up. Special shout out to Jack. He was always a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend this shop!

      Wir Waren vom 17.06.bis 31.06. 25 zum tauchen auf Bonaire und die Tauchbasis am Hamlet Oasis stand uns treu zur Seite. Wir hatten natürlich viele Fragen zum selbständigen tauchen an Davinia und Jack und sie waren immer geduldig mit uns. Es waren alle lieb mit uns, aber alle Namen weiss ich nicht mehr. Von unserem Häuschen war es nur 1 min zur Basis. Die gesammte Reise gebucht bei ABC TRAVEL war so unkompliziert und Nico Ruiz und Julian so freundlich und entspannt plus die anderen Mitarbeiter. Es hat alles super geklappt und war von vorn herein alles klar. Flug weiter Flug, Auto, Zimmer obwohl wir erst in der Nacht angekommen, sogar noch noch ein Getränk bekommen in der Nachbaranlage war gegen 22 Uhr noch möglich. Habe meinen 60 Geb dort gefeiert und es war perfekt. Ich kann ABC TRAVEL und DIVE FRIENDS für deinen nächsten Tauchurlaub nur weiter empfehlen. Die Insel musst du selber erkunden.Sie ist klein und gemütlich und die Menschen sind super freundlich und entspannt, freundlich und zuvorkommend. Für einen entspannten Urlaub und eigenständiges tauchen perfekt zu empfehlen. liebes Dankeschön an dive friends und ABC Travel perfekte kombi Svenja uns Heidi

      Went here for my first ever diving experience and it did not disappoint. Dive Friends Bonaire has such amazing and sweet people working there. We were helped by Ben, who went through all the instructions before going into the water. He made sure we were comfortable with going down which took some pressure off of my shoulders(yes I was very nervous for my first time diving). Before going down there is an oppurtunity to drink, use the restroom and put your belongings in a locker. Underwater Ben helped us by adjusting weights, air in the vest and kept an eye on the airmeter, making sure we would be ready. After the dive we booked a boat ride around Klein Bonaire to go snorkeling around the hotspots together with the divers that were onboard too. It was certainly an experience and I look forward to dive again with Dive Friends Bonaire on my next vacation here to the island! A huge thanks to Ben for making my first dive an unforgettable experience!

      We stopped in to Dive Friends to rent some snorkel gear. The gear was very reasonably priced. We asked where we might snorkel nearby to see some fish and were told that we could go right across the street, but down to the right away from everyone else. Well, we were amazed at all of the fish we saw just slowly snorkeling in the direction we were told. Absolutely had one of the best times of our entire cruise thanks to Dive Friends! I would highly recommend them and this location in particular!
