Bonaire

A Caribbean diving mecca with almost its entire coastline protected as a marine park, famed for shore diving, flamingos and windsurfing.

Bonaire is an island in the southern Caribbean Sea, just off the north coast of Venezuela. It is a special municipality of the Netherlands and, together with Aruba and Curaçao, forms the ABC Islands. The waters around the island make up Bonaire National Marine Park, where coral reefs lie close to shore, so you can simply step into the water from the roadside for a shore dive. It is one of the world's best-known dive destinations. In the north is Washington Slagbaai National Park; the salt pans in the south are home to flamingos, and Lac Bay on the east coast is ideal for windsurfing. The climate is dry with little rain, making Bonaire a year-round destination. The gateway is Flamingo International Airport, near the capital, Kralendijk.
