At Villa Safir we are devoted to making your stay enjoyable. All of our dive-packages include the
two basic things you need for diving: weights and tanks. The packages do not include equipment,
but we now have a solution for that! After listening to what our customers have wanted over the years,
we decided acquire our own PADI dive shop, which means more options and benefits for you.
Should you need to rent equipment during you stay, want to try out something new or need help
repairing your own, we can help. All the rates can be
found here
Prior to going for your first dive, there is a mandatory Marine Park Orientation, which is provided
at your leisure at the Villa. We will brief you about the diving on Bonaire and complete all the
necessary paperwork (don’t forget to bring your proof of certification). We then go out
for a "check out" dive at a nearby dive site; this means we help you to set up your (rental) gear
and go for a dive to ensure everything is ok. After that you are on your own,but we are happy to
help you choose spots or set up any special dives you may want to do during your vacation with us.
Back at the Villa you can rinse your equipment in the freshwater tanks. Each room has a personal
locker for you to hang your gear to dry. The area is well lit,making the facilities easy to use even
after night dives. Lockers, locks and hangers are all provided for your use no additional charge
during your stay.
Your full tanks, with either regular air or Nitrox 32, are also stored near where you park your
vehicle, or can be picked up at the dive center if you are out and about during the day (the shop
is open from 8 to 5 daily). The tanks are not filled at property so there is no compressor noise!
If you have been diving down south and need more tanks, would like some site recommendations, need
a piece of kit or want a cup of coffee, you can always stop in at the dive shop. We are also the
only Mares authorised dealer on the island.
Boat diving:
The boat dives that we arrange at Div’Ocean are always guided dives with a personal touch and
only with a small group. With a 2-tanker it’s always a surprise what Bianca has prepared for
us between the dives. The boat departs from the shop and guests are free to use the showers or
toilets at the centre.
We also can provide customized experiences or courses (from a Discover Scuba all the way up to
Dive Master), so just contact us with your requests. It would be our pleasure to tailor an
arrangement to accommodate your needs and desires to make you’re diving on Bonaire special.
Our motto is comfortable and relax diving with a lot of fun.
