1000 Steps
Take a dive into the crystal-clear waters of Bonaire's famous 1000 Steps dive and snorkel site. Get up close and personal with a diverse array of marine life and marvel at the breathtaking views of the bay. Don't miss out on the chance to see turtles, barracudas, jacks, parrotfish, morays, wrasses, boxfish and lobsters hiding in overhanging areas.
As you dive, take in the stunning beauty of the abundant hard and soft corals, sponges, sea whips, and delicate staghorn coral that provide valuable habitat for grunts, damselfish, and other species. And, don't forget to snap a photo of the long coral-stone staircase built in the late 1960's!
