Bonaire : Profile
Bonaire is the easternmost of the ABC islands, which are part of the Netherlands Antilles.
With its stunning underwater scenery, Bonaire is ranked as one of the top three dive spots in the world, and the whole island is a protected marine park.
Bonaire is less densely populated than its neighbour Curacao and also less developed. The slow pace of life on the island and its relaxed population have an enduring charm.
For visiting sailors the attraction also lies in the better than average repair and service facilities. Marina berths & services are available at Harbour Village Marina (also known as Bonaire Marina), Plaza Resort Marina and Club Nautico.
Bonaire lies outside the hurricane zone.
