Conservation Efforts
Reef Renewal
Reef Renewal Bonaire is a conservation organization focused on helping the coral reefs of Bonaire thrive. Its mission is to protect, replenish, and restore Bonaire’s biodiverse coral reefs.
As a dive shop partner, Dive Friends contributes to these efforts by teaching the Reef Renewal Distinctive Specialty course.
Adopt The Blue
Adopt The Blue is an effort by PADI to accelerate the pathway to Marine Protected Area (MPA) status at sites that are relevant for protection and conservation. Our house reefs are Adopt The Blue sites, and we put effort into their conservation by conducting Dive Against Debris Surveys and cleanup dives.
Green Fins
As a Green Fins member, we protect and conserve coral reefs by following environmental guidelines that promote a sustainable diving and snorkelling industry.
Green Fins is a proven conservation management approach – implemented internationally by The Reef-World Foundation and the UN Environment Programme – which leads to a measurable reduction in the negative environmental impacts associated with marine tourism.
