Diving in Bonaire

Bonaire, a cozy small island municipality of the Netherlands, is located in the southern Caribbean, on the coast of Venezuela. This paradise was voted the number one shore diving destination in the Caribbean. It’s considered a divers paradise because of its abundant coral reef only a few feet from shore, and its beautiful underwater world. Beyond the colorful underwater world, you will find a desert-like landscape filled with cacti, Washington Slagbaai National Park, which is an ecological reserve, and a flamingo sanctuary. You can also enjoy many other activities in Bonaire, like mountain biking, kayaking, kite surfing, windsurfing, and of course snorkeling.
