What splendid eyes these little gobies have  They hide in small crevices in rocks. They are shy but curious and it is easy to photograph them when they lean out to scrutinize the external environment. Havelock Is._April2024

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!
