The route
- 015 daysBonaire80.7Caribbean Netherlands · Caribbean
Rent a truck, dive whatever you want whenever you want. No current, no tide, no schedule — Bonaire is the reset the rest of your year needs.
- 024 daysCayman Islands80.3Cayman Islands · Caribbean
Fly through Miami to Little Cayman (not Grand Cayman — Grand is where the hotels are, not the dives). Bloody Bay Wall is the best wall in the Caribbean.
- 035 daysCozumel80.7Mexico · Caribbean
Drift dive finale. Book a 6:30am op to beat the cruise ship crowd. End the trip with the splendid toadfish night dive.
Logistics
- →Bonaire → Cayman: fly via Miami or Curaçao. Budget a full travel day.
- →Cayman → Cozumel: fly via Miami. No-fly window after Bonaire means spacing works out.
- →Hurricane belt June–November — avoid those months.
Honest verdict
“Three weeks of Caribbean diving without burning out. Bonaire is where you decompress mentally, Cayman is where you see world-class walls, Cozumel is where you remember why you started diving in the first place.”
