This small, arid boomerang of an island is a divers' paradise. Skeptical? Read the license plate on your rental car, pal. Bonaire really does have some of the best diving in the region, most of it within the Marine Park encircling its shore.
The average daily high stays around 28°C (82°F) all year, and humidity is tolerable, so the best time to go is the low season of May to mid-December when rates come down. Bonaire is out of the hurricane belt so you don't have to figure the big blow into your schedule.
This uninhabited islet is a short boat ride from Kralendijk. Surrounded by reefs, it's a popular spot for picnicking and diving. Unlike much of Big Bonaire, the little one has white sandy beaches. Klein Bonaire is one of two local areas covered by the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance.
