"Almost any mention of the beautiful island of Bonaire in the Dutch
Caribbean includes a remark about the underwater environment. Bonaire
boasts one of the first protected marine parks in the world, a park
which has recently been granted National Park status in the
Netherlands and Netherlands Antilles. The park extends from the high
tide mark to 200 feet (65 meters) below the surface and surrounds the
entire island Bonaire, and our sister island, Klein Bonaire. The coral
reefs of the Bonaire Marine Park have made Bonaire a favorite with
scuba divers and snorkelers. And, many of the local divemasters are
amateur naturalists. They can help you identify many of the underwater
inhabitants and show you some of our more unique ones like the
Long-lure Frogfish. Special courses and programs are available for any
fish or coral lover. Sea & Discover also has special programs for the
kids and family so all can join in the fun."
