Does anyone have any first hand experience with Bonaire and snorkeling? We are considering a day trip next time we go to Aruba. Is it worth the travel expense? How does it compare to Aruba's snorkeling?
Thanks

Snorkeling Bonaire is like being inside a fish tank! Aruba snorkeling is good. What Bonaire lacks in beaches it more than makes up for in fantastic snorkel sites.

If money and time are no object then I would not hesitate.

We used Renee as our dive guide. She took us to 3 different sites.
