Buddy Dive Resort Bonaire Presents: Ned & Anna Deloach
Buddy Dive Resort Bonaire has announced that Ned & Anna DeLoach, authors of the Reef Fish Identification and Behavior books, will once again pay a visit to Bonaire.
Unlike previous years when Ned & Anna would visit Buddy Dive in September for three weeks, this year they will come and stay with Buddy Dive from May 28th till June 11th.
“Over the last years we have been on so many adventures,” Anna says, “but now it’s time to slow down a bit. We always love our visits to Buddy Dive and didn’t want to give this up. Together with Buddy Dive we came up with the plan to visit Bonaire every other year and Dominica in the other years. This year we will be joining Buddy Dive Resort Bonaire for 2 weeks during the Coral Lovers month and in 2017 around the same period we will be going to Buddy Dive on Dominica to host the Marine Life Education weeks there.”
The Marine Life Education weeks at Buddy Dive Resort Bonaire in August and September as everyone knows them will continue. Also the 2nd diver dives for free special during this period will remain the same as usual.
During their visits over the last years, the Buddy Dive staff has been trained by Ned & Anna DeLoach on Fish & Reef ID. Ned & Anna are very confident that the Buddy Dive Staff will be able to take over the Fish & Reef ID program they designed. The Buddy Dive guests are in the very capable hands of Danny, Murphyn, Francesca, Mr G., Lars, Tina and Bart who have been working with Ned & Anna since day 1.
Last but not least: During the Marine Life Education weeks in August and September, the books of Ned & Anna will be for sale at a discounted rate.

Dive Worldwide Announces Bite-Back as its Charity of the Year
Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
