Bonaire

Beautiful Bonaire, in the southern Caribbean Sea, provides an ecological paradise for nature lovers above and below the water! The entire coastline is protected as the “Bonaire Marine Park” (up to depths of 200 feet), encompassing reef systems that provide excellent snorkeling and shore diving locations.

Aside from Diving, salt production is Bonaire’s biggest industry and is quickly observed in the South. The stunning salt beds of Pekelmeer are also home to one of the hemisphere's great populations of flamingoes. In addition, neighboring excellent shore diving and snorkeling sites, are historical landmarks to Bonaire’s repressive past: African slave huts. These huts still stand in the area around Rincon and along the saltpans of South Bonaire.

Difficult entry on the first 10-20 meters, Because the reef-top is only 30-50 cm deep.
But you will see undestroyed corals at all.

Nukove is really out of the way, but not difficult to find with a good map.  It is a beautiful cove and beach area where you'll have little, if any, company.  The dive is easy and rewarding.  Bring a lunch and plenty of water.

You'll start your trek by turning right just before the Bonaire Petroleum Corporation storage tanks in the Karpata area.

Boca Slagbaai is a wonderful beach that, unfortunately, was ravaged by the extremely rare hurricane of 1999.  Many of the facilities and buildings on this beach were damaged.  As repairs are made and concessions begin operations again, we'll put a note in this section.  This is a great beach to spend the day with the kids.
