Coordinates: OpenStreetMap (ODbL) dive-site nodes, cross-checked by name against the STINAPA Bonaire National Marine Park dive-site list. They mark each site in general, not an entry point.

Rules we can cite from official sources. Check them yourself before you dive; they change.

• The Bonaire National Marine Park covers all waters around Bonaire and Klein Bonaire from the high-tide mark to 60 m (200 ft) depth. STINAPA Bonaire
• Strict no-anchoring policy inside the marine park. Shore sites are marked with yellow stones and boat moorings are yellow buoys. STINAPA Bonaire
• The STINAPA nature fee is mandatory for all users of the marine park and is valid per calendar year (Jan–Dec). STINAPA nature fee
• Stony coral tissue loss disease has been detected on Bonaire. STINAPA asks everyone to disinfect gear before the first and after the last dive of a trip, and to avoid touching, gloves and pointer sticks. STINAPA Bonaire
• STINAPA says Washington Slagbaai Park remains closed for diving. None of our Bonaire sites are inside that park. STINAPA Bonaire

GBIF.org (2026-10-14), CC0 and CC BY 4.0 records within about 1 km of these 12 sites (80,782 records). Counts reflect survey effort, not abundance.

Official forecasts first. There is no NOAA NDBC buoy close enough to be useful here, so we link the official local forecast only.
