07/22/2010 Robert D. Hunter (Avg: 2.97 Review) - Probably the easiest entry on all of Bonaire. The vertical 'wall' is fairly impressive. Saw a juvenile spotted drum at 32'. The fauna appears a bit stressed and damaged as I suspect this site has seen a lot of diving pressure. Appears to be a popular place for dive certification courses.

10/14/2003 Marge Lawson (Avg: 4.13 Review) - Only did this dive twice, but saw squid both times right at the drop off. The second time, we were coming up from our dive when we were surrounded by a "squid squadron" of about 10 or so squid. They often swam in formation, forward, backward, or just hanging out watching us. They would often flash each other changing color very rapidly (a form of communication?). We spent 25 minutes in 10 - 20 foot depth (it made it a 90 minute dive) watching the squid, and left only when we were too low on air to stay longer. Also saw: spotted moray, queen angelfish and French angelfish, Spanish hogfish, bearded fire worm, horse-eyed jack, bar jack, honeycomb cowfish, black margate, blue spotted coronet fish, sharp-tail eel, etc. This is an interesting dive since it's different from the other dives. The wall is very vertical, with lots of wire coral hanging out.

08/21/2002 Fiona Rattray (Avg: 3.76 Review) - Ridiculously easy entry down a set of stairs. When we were diving, there seemed to be some weird hot/cold vertical thermoclines I didn't notice anywhere else on Bonaire. The little wall was great, we went all the way from Cliff almost to the desalination plant, then back to Capt. Don's reef before returning to shore.

03/04/2002 Wanda S. Rodriguez (Avg: 4.27 Review) - A great dive for beginners. Check out dives for Open Water students are done here a lot. I saw my first sea horse at this site. There were also lots of morays and lobsters. There is a small shallow wreck at this site. Reef appeared slightly abused.

05/28/2001 Doug Shuman (Avg: 4.25 Review) - Stayed at Cap'n Don's Habitat to get certified and used their dive dock which is within 50 yards of the reef. Totally excellent! They have tanks any time, day or night, super easy entry and exit, outdoor showers, etc. The wall was protected from hurricane 2 years ago by a little barrier island and still has a great coral reef. I saw abundant marine life, including Queen Angels, lots of Caribbean octopus, spotted drum, etc. Great dive!

05/21/2001 Jerry & Donna Hamberg (Avg: 3.48 Review) - The coral is in very good shape, there is a absence of fish life compared to 15 years ago. The most notable missing fish is the Queen angel

04/01/2001 Cynthia Brown (Avg: 3.91 Review) - Very easy entry off "seven body beach" north of Habitat. Short little wall dive. Always see a lot of fish and eels.
