The unspoiled island of Bonaire is located in the Dutch Antilles in the southern Caribbean. Known for its world-class scuba diving and snorkeling, Bonaire prides itself on its nature preservation efforts. None more so than the establishment of the Bonaire National Marine Park. Established in 1979, the park protects from the high-water mark down to 200 ft (60 meters) of depth around the island. This protection and care has nurtured some of the world's most incredible underwater environments, lush with marine life, waiting to be explored and enjoyed. In addition to the water sports, Bonaire is alive with culture, beauty, and activities for those who prefer to enjoy their time on land. With nature tours (or "kunuku" as the locals call them), bird watching, mountain biking, or simply lounging in the warm Caribbean sun, Bonaire will keep you as busy – or as relaxed – as you like. |
