The island is surrounded by the Bonaire National Marine Park, protecting a vibrant underwater world of coral reefs, sea turtles, rays, and hundreds of tropical fish species. With over 80 marked dive sites, most just a few steps from the shore, diving and snorkeling here is easy, accessible, and breathtaking.

VISIT KLEIN BONAIRE
Just a 10-minute boat ride from Kralendijk, Klein Bonaire is an uninhabited island that feels like a slice of untouched paradise. Its soft white sands and crystal-clear waters make No Name Beach one of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. It’s a favorite for snorkeling, swimming, and picnicking—with vibrant reef life just offshore. Because there are no facilities, it’s best to pack water, snacks, and shade for a peaceful day in nature.
EXPLORE KRALENDIJK
The island’s colorful capital, Kralendijk, is full of charm. Wander its streets to admire pastel-toned Dutch-Caribbean architecture, browse local boutiques and art galleries, and enjoy waterfront dining at restaurants serving fresh seafood and Caribbean flavors. Stop by the Terramar Museum to learn about Bonaire’s rich cultural history, or enjoy a lively evening market with crafts, food, and music. It’s a great place to experience the heart and soul of the island.
VISIT THE WASHINGTON SLAGBAAI NATIONAL PARK
This vast nature reserve covers the northern part of the island and showcases Bonaire’s dramatic landscapes—cactus-covered hills, salt flats, hidden coves, and rugged coastlines. Washington Slagbaai National Park is home to native wildlife like flamingos, parrots, iguanas, and goats. Adventurous visitors can hike Mount Brandaris, the island’s highest point, or drive through the park’s scenic routes to explore secluded beaches and snorkel in clear blue bays like Wayaka and Boka Slagbaai.
WINDSURFING AT LAC BAY
Located on the sheltered Lac Bay, Sorobon Beach is one of the best places in the world to try windsurfing, thanks to steady trade winds and shallow, warm waters. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, local surf schools offer lessons and gear rentals in a laid-back, friendly setting. After a session on the water, relax with a cocktail at one of the beach bars and enjoy the barefoot, tropical atmosphere.
