Drive and Dive around Curacao in February 2008. Excellent diving and an abundance of underwater wildlife to see/explore. After having dove BonAire in 2007, I'd recommend Curacao for those wanting more diversity (i.e., night life and other forms of entertainment), while BonAire is better suited to strictly diving, whereas alternative activities are few/far between. Regardless, both offer drive and dive packages, hence if you've tried/tired of the cattle-boat dive trips, or the weakest-link in the chain type guided tours, I can guarantee you'll love the freedom and pace of setting your own agenda!
