Dive sites in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba

Off the beach at Plaza Beach Resort south of Kralendijk, 18th Palm gives direct access to a Caribbean reef slope. A shallow sandy zone with rubble patches leads to coral starting at 6 meters and descending past 30 meters. Atlantic tarpon patrol the reef edge by day and gather in dive light beams at night. Southern stingrays lie in sandy pockets near the reef base. On the drop-off, tube sponges and soft corals shelter frogfish and seahorses.
