Klein Bonaire

Klein Bonaire is an uninhabited nature reserve off the coast of Bonaire that stretches across flat terrain with a maximum height of just a few meters above sea level. The island has wide sandy beaches, including the popular No Name Beach, and is surrounded by coral reefs.

The island was long under private ownership before becoming part of Bonaire National Marine Park in 1999 following a collective purchase. This transformation protected the surrounding marine ecosystems and the landscape.

The remains of slave huts on the island stand as reminders of the Caribbean's colonial past and the role this place played in regional history. These structures tell the story of the people who lived and worked here.

Visitors reach the island by water taxi from Kralendijk's harbor, with regular departures throughout the day to No Name Beach. The crossing is brief, and boats run frequently, making it easy to plan your visit.

The coral reefs surrounding the island are marked with numbered yellow rocks that show safe crossing points for divers and make underwater navigation easier. This system helps visitors find the best dive sites while protecting the reefs.
