Buddy Dive Thru the Lens - Underwater Photography Event

During Buddy Dive Thru the Lens, our photo guru Guillermo will offer a program for guests to develop their skills and knowledge through workshops and presentations and practice their newly learned skills in a perfect environment.

The event will be sponsored by SeaLife underwater cameras. This offers a great opportunity to try the newest SeaLife cameras and products during try-outs and workshops.

Buddy Dive Resort Bonaire

The resort opened its doors for the first time on August 19, 1980, and it’s a sure thing that a lot has happened and changed since then.

When talking to guests who stayed with us before they will most likely have a lot of stories from back in the day, which they can share with you.

Martien van der Valk, head of the Buddy Dive Family looks back: “When my wife Ingrid and I obtained Buddy Dive Resort & Watersports back in 2002, the resort only had 46 apartments, a small dive operation with 3 boats and 20 rental cars.”
