The water temperature in Bonaire ranges from 78-81°F (25-27°C).

Wetsuits are a personal choice. People dive with diveskins to 5mm depending on their tolerance to cold.
A diveskin of some sort protects against sunburn,stingy things in the water, and although you should not be touching the reef, Fire coral contact.

Hard soled booties are a must on Bonaire... there is much rubble and iron shore on the beaches and underwater there are urchins just waiting to find a nice soft foot.. there are also very long sharp thorns around some of the bushes.. Please be very careful with these as we wouldn't want your vacation cut short because of medical reasons.
