The Dive Industry is constantly looking for new alternatives to feed the non stop demand for more and new ways to enjoy and explore the underwater world, following this idea and direction Buddy Dive Resort went deep into the developing of a new department fully dedicated to Technical Diving, after a year of intensive training, investments and improvements we were very happy and pleased to announce the opening of Buddy Dive Resort Technical Diving Department in October 2007.


Under the leadership of Dive Operations Manager Augusto Montbrun the project started first with the investment in Top of the line Tech Diving Equipment from "Palm Trading Bonaire" Local Dealer of Dive Rite Tech Gear, right after that 5 of our Dive Instructors went straight into Tech Diving Training achieving various levels of certifications from different agencies giving us the wide and complete list of alternatives for the different requests of our Tech Diving guests, today we are proud to say that in our staff we have Tech Divers from PADI- TEC DEEP & TRIMIX, GUE -TRIMIX and TDI, at the moment we are able to Tech Tech diving courses from TDI.

To close the circle of Tech Diving, Buddy Dive Resort also re -arranged the fill station area adding a complete and new Partial pressure gas blending station were we are able to fill our Tech Diving tanks and prepare custom blends at the desire of our clientele, our Technical Diving staff got the qualification from PADI & TDI gas & TRIMIX blenders keeping the safety standards at the highest possible level.

Today we are able to offer from Tech Diving Courses, equipment rentals, custom blends to guided dives to the Windjammer and other interesting sites not so often explored on Bonaire before, at the same time we can host Tech Diving Courses from Instructors that come,stay and use our facilities to teach their Tech Diving students, PADI Course Director and TRIMIX Instructor Carlos Pena Herrera choose Buddy Dive to be his Tech Diving classroom for two years in a row, and very clear said " couldn't find a better place and diving facilities to bring my Tech Diving students"

The non-stop spirit of adventure and curiosity of the enthusiastic diving community worldwide keeps pushing forward the Dive Industry and it is our job and certainly our pleasure to make sure that everyone gets what they asked for and who else better than the Buddy Dive Team to assure that !
