5.00Amazing concierge level of service. We appreciate the ability to get a 63, 80, or 100 for whatever type of diving we choose to do in a given day. The drive-through is also an absolute win.
Our favorite Bonaire dive shop.

5.00VIP diving is the best! This is our second year using their services. They are friendly and convenient. Even for night dives after they’ve closed; they have so many options and many locations for tank refills. I can’t say how wonderful and welcoming they were and continue to be!

Best full service dive shop on Bonaire!

5.00We have used VIP for many years on our annual two week visit to Bonaire. Without fail, the Nitrox is always available and convenient for loading into the truck, pressure is 3000+, and oxygen at 32%. We are in and out of their shop with six tanks (tested by me) in less than 10 minutes. When we have needed technical help with fixing equipment or needing to replace a dive computer, they were extremely helpful, offered a fair price, and did not try to “up sell” us with something we did not need. They even gave me a quick lesson on how to set up and use a new dive computer. We have also done ostracod dives with them as well. And both those trips were fantastic. These guys are the best full service dive shop on Bonaire!
Best on the Island!

5.00My wife and I did a last minute booking to get our Advanced Open water course. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Our instructor Yari was informative and thorough. VIP is one of the bigger shops on the island with excellent facilities including a drive- though tank pickup and drop off! I was a big fan of the Nitrox and pressure test/sampling setup they use. I also was appreciative that every tank we grabbed was slightly overfilled rather than underfilled. The only drawback I could tell was that they do not have any boats. I believe they have some deal with other dive operators on the Island if you care to boat dives but we did not go that route.
Great Dive Training

VIP Diving is the finest Dive Center on Bonaire

5.00This was my third visit to Bonaire. My family and I stayed at a popular dive resort (7 days), and I debated whether to use the on-site dive center or drive to VIP Diving. I chose VIP, and there will never be a question or second thought about that decision again. In my opinion, VIP Diving is the finest dive center—hands down. The staff is outstanding, pleasant, knowledgeable, and truly accommodating. They are always busy guiding, helping guests, cleaning up, or maintaining the equipment. The equipment (if you need to rent) is excellent, and when it comes to tanks, they have everything you could want, air or nitrox, large or small tanks—and most importantly, full tanks. They offer training for all levels of diving, with an especially impressive technical diving department. To Jonathan—applause to you for maintaining, growing, and continuing to improve your place there. Thank you for treating me so well during my visit and saying "Good morning" when I walked through your doors. There is absolutely no question who I will choose next time . . . VIP Diving.
VIP - best in Bonaire

5.00Excellent services, clean and large shop, great rental equipment and the best dive instructor’s. We took the AOW class and the two instructors (Phil and Amber ) were excellent. Johnathan who is one of the owners was by far the best we have ever worked with. From preplanning the class to delayed flights and moving dives around to accommodate us. It is truly a VIP service shop and I highly recommend them. We also did the offsite air/nitric package at the Bellafonte Hotel and it was well stocked and super easy. Check out is smooth and everyone is there to make sure you have a great time. I have 170+ dives, so I have seen my shares of shops. A++++. Happy bubbles all!
Great shop for those with both with and without experience

5.00Excellent dive shop. My brother and his significant other got certified and had good skills and caution following. My wife and I used the tank card which made things easy. When we go back we will dive with VIP.
