I have been looking at the posts on this site since I found out I was going and you all have me really excited. Even tho I only snorkel I know it is going to be awsome. Katie

Only snorkeling in Bonaire is incredible!!!! There is an abundance of fish life in the shallows. Please check out my trip reports. Part two is some pictures and about my snorkeling experiences and that is all I do! You might like to do a guided snorkel with Renee from www.Reneesnorkeltrips.com or do a sail with the Woodwind that has two snorkel stops.

Katie, also work on breath-holding skills before you go.....there is a lot to dive down and get a close look at. Before I moved back to the states I was snorkeling almost every day at Playa Lechi, visiting seahorses and frogfish in 15-35 feet of water, not to mention all of the other 235+ species :-) If you are the eco-education sort, do a fish ID or behavior session with Caren Eckrich (Sea & Discover). It's money well spent!

And don't just snorkel at the listed dive sites. For instance, the whole length of the sandy bottom area between the small piers just north of 'downtown' Kralendijk and the south jetty of the marina is wonderful snorkeling. I took my 9 year old granddaughter there and she was identifying fish in 6 inches of water along the shore.

You are all getting me sooooo excited about this trip, and to think I almost said "NO" and was going to do another cruise. Looks like Bonaire is a real addiction! Katie
