I went to bonaire last year and had a great time diving,but the next
time I go out I need to consider things to do for non diving family
members so I thought curacao might be better for them. Just wondered
if there's much difference in the diving.
would appreciate your views

Bonaire for diving. Curacao for topside.

Try to get a resort as close to Punta or Otrabanda as possible, and stay away
from the far west end.

There are lots of things to do in Curacao for the non diving significant
others. However, you will need to rent a car. The diving is very good in
Curacao but the shore diving is much more difficult due to access problems.
If you go to Curacao, plan on using a boat for at least half your dive days.
I stayed at Habitat recently and it is a pretty good operation although off
the beaten path. This is not a problem if you have a car.
