Dive-site story
Located near the historic red slave huts on the southern tip of Bonaire, this exposed dive site is defined by open-ocean energy and sweeping currents. Coral spurs alternate with wide sandy channels, dropping steadily toward deep blue water. Because of its southern exposure, the site often experiences choppy surface conditions and moderate to strong drift, attracting cruising pelagics that divers rarely encounter along the sheltered western coastline.

Seasonality
Diving is possible year-round, though calmer seas during periods of lighter trade winds make shore entries considerably easier.
