Where this price comes from

VIP Diving's own price, checked on 13 Aug 2026. See the source page ↗

"Diving with instructor" price; the page states "Prices include dive gear and tanks." A separate $251 line is the standalone PADI eLearning theory module for divers who want to complete the in-water portion elsewhere. The course page lists the Bonaire STINAPA Nature Fee under "Requirements" without a dollar figure.

“Learn about scuba diving principles and terminology and basic scuba skills in a pool with a highly trained PADI Instructor. When you're ready, make four dives in an open water environment with your instructor supporting you every step of the way.”
