Getting to swim up close with these beautiful creatures and being able to observe them in their natural habitat is something rare and unforgetable! We do not feed the turtles or interfere with their natural lifestyle in any way, so this is a real nature experience!

- Salt Pier (49) - This is a guided snorkel trip that will take you to one of the locations locally known to have the most turtles and lots of fish. After this, it is a 15-minute drive to see the wild flamingos, the Bonairian national animal. The guide is a PADI scuba diving instructor with over 20 years of experience and knows plenty of fun facts about the local marine life. The trip usually involves quite some swimming. If you prefer not to swim much or are not comfortable in the water, make sure to tell your guide in advance so we can adjust the snorkel route by entering at a different spot! There will be a very high probability of seeing turtles up close, but since we do not want to interfere with nature in any way, (for example feeding to lure turtles) there is always a possibility of no turtle to be found. That doesn’t mean the trip is not interesting since the beautiful corals and fish are still very nice to see and your guide can tell you many interesting facts about them for those who are interested.

The best tour guide in Bonaire - Elora is the best! She made our adventure safe and enjoyable at the same time! She is so nice, chill and just so friendly. I would recommend her to everyone I know who will go to Bonaire.

Brilliant trip!! - Jim is a super guide and a delightful person to get to know. He took every care with me getting into and out of the water and help me put on and take off the fins. He knew just where to find the turtles and we must’ve seen six or seven. He also took quite a few photos and sent them to me on WhatsApp .
He also guided me well to see the flamingos, what a stunning sight!
Jim picked me up promptly and took me back so the whole experience was smooth and magical. Hundred percent recommend . many thanks Jim, wonderful memories indeed👌🐢🙏🏼

Amazing Snorkling Trip - We had an amazing snorkling trip!
We were picked up from our chosen location, after which we drove to the beach. We got to borrow all the needed snorkling gear, which was great as we didn’t have our own.
Our guide showed us the best places to see the sea turtles. We were lucky to see many of them during our snorkling trip! We also saw many beautiful fish and corals.
The whole trip was amazing and we had great time. We’d recommend this experience to everyone!

Snorkeling with the turtles - The water was very choppy that day. But Jim did a great job navigating the currents. My 11 yr old daughter had a blast. It was a great experience.

We saw turtles! - The tour guide, Jim, picked us from our hotel and drove to the snorkeling site on Bonaire. He provided us with fins, wet suits etc. and helped to locate turtles. We saw about 5-6 of them. The turtle habitat is usually sand and sea grass… not very spectacular underwater views. Keep in mind that this tour involves very intensive swimming for one hour.
