Bonaire National Marine Park

Encircling the entire island, the Bonaire
National Marine Park is one of the
Caribbean’s top dive spots. Reefs,
mangroves, beaches, sea grass beds
and lagoons are all included in the park
so there is a great deal of diversity for
visitors to enjoy and explore. The park
also includes Klein Bonaire, an island off
Bonaire’s western coast.

Rincon
Rincon is Bonaire’s oldest settlement and is
today still the island’s cultural capital. A visit
to the town gives people a break from what
can be the more hectic lifestyle on the island.
As well as cyclists and cars on the streets of
this peaceful community, you will often see
goats and donkeys. Once a week visitors
can join a guided tour to see the town and
island’s history or they can, at any time, buy
a guide book and make their own historical
tour.
