EatonDoolittle Posted March 14, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I was there a few weeks ago, and it was great - just be sure you bring water shoes if you plan to snorkle. Lots of big rocks close to shore , but of course, rocks and coral are where you find the fish, not on bare sand. It is my regular spot in Bonaire. There were 2 ships in port and most taxi drivers and shore staff were channeling people the other direction to Eden and the resort next to it, and I wanted to avoid those crowds. Still just $10 for the day for chair, umbrella, all facilities, but no shuttle any more (that I saw). It is walkable, if you prefer - 15 - 20 minutes.

tpwolfe Posted April 20, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Here is a video I took in Bonaire March 2013 snorkling at the Plaza Resort. Great reef and they only charge $5.00 a person to use their facilities. It's about a 20 minute walk from the Cruise port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they still run a free shuttle service from the cruise dock Thx for any help Eddiep I asked them when we were there in March if they still have the shuttle and the was no they stopped it. Here is a email we got back from them Dec, 2012: Yes we do offer day passes. It would be $15 per person for a non-alcoholic drink, sun bed, use of facilities and towel. When you return the towel, you will receive $5 back! Just visit the gate at the front entrance that day and purchase your passes! We had towels but they only charged up $5.00 a person.

jimw Posted May 1, 2013 #5 Share Posted May 1, 2013 We saw a Manta Ray while diving from a boat off their beach last week. The divesite is called 18th Palm. Imo, there is better snorkeling elsewhere on Bonaire and especially Klein Bonaire. The shallow reef was destroyed in a storm a few years ago here and other nearby divesites. I also dove Windsock off the airport which some years ago was an astounding snorkel site and now is sand and coral rubble. I suggest Klein for snorkeling using the water taxi or maybe the Woodwind...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great reef and they only charge $5.00 a person to use their facilities. It's about a 20 minute walk from the Cruise port. We stayed there a couple of times many years ago before the cruise ships visited; and, the snorkeling right off the pier was outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
