Objective
The main objective of this guide is to provide a resource for people, particularly divers, snorkelers, kiteboarders and wind surfers who are interested in exploring the marine environment of Bonaire. This guide is designed to be used alongside Reef Smart waterproof cards, which can be taken into the water. This guide will be most useful for watersports enthusiasts but also includes information that any visitor to Bonaire will find useful.
Mapping
We have attempted to catalog all the island’s dive and snorkel sites as well as its beaches, kiteboarding and wind surfing spots. However, only what we consider to be the top dive and snorkel sites in Bonaire have been featured in more detail using Reef Smart’s unique 3D-mapping technology. These maps provide useful information such as depths, currents, waves, suggested routes, potential hazards, unique structures and species information, which cannot be found in other guides. The maps in this guidebook are listed from north to south.
Disclaimer
Reef Smart guides are for recreational use only – they are not navigational charts and should not be used as such. We have attempted to provide accurate and up-to-date information for each site, as well as activities to enjoy in the surrounding areas. However, businesses close and new ones open, prices are adjusted and change is inevitable in the marine environment. The information contained in this guide is accurate only at the time of publication. The size and location of structures may vary. Depths and distances are approximated in both metric and imperial units, and the suggested route is optional. Reef Smart assumes no responsibility for inaccuracies and omissions, and assumes no liability for the use of these maps.
