I learned how to dive while living in Hawai'i and unfortunately do not get many opportunities to enjoy it. There is something about diving in a quarry or off the Jersey Shore that doesn't appeal to me as much as, Bonaire. haha
My father dives as well so we booked an excursion with Stuart Cove's prior to our trip. I felt a lot better knowing everything was set. All of my previous dives were done in Hawai'i, more spur of the moment. This was first time I would be diving...

I Jetblued it down to paradise for a quick tropical get-away with my family. We always stay at the magnificent Atlantis (www.atlantis.com). Usually on my way there I think about the numerous other places I could have visited in the last 15 years, however at the end of all of my trips I am inevitably thankful for having returned once again to such a special place. I guarantee you will enjoy every minute of your time there!
