★★★★★
(2,641)
Many consider Karpata one of the best dive sites in Bonaire. It is famous for its spectacular visibility and beautiful topography. The reef is covered in healthy soft and hard corals and the reef has beautiful shaping to it. A must dive while in Bonaire!
A great site to spot sea turtles! You’ll see typical Caribbean life like nurse and reef sharks, possible eagle rays, stingrays, and lots of fish: snapper, angelfish, grunts, parrotfish.
