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.

Bonaire turtles and flamingos - I absolutely loved this excursion. Jimmy and his brother were very knowledgeable and personable. They gave good instructions for snorkeling and found sea turtles and other fish for us to enjoy in their natural habitat. The flamingos were absolutely amazing to view as well. I will definitely encourage friends to book with Amazing Bonaire for excursions!

We say a lot of colorful fish and turtles in the water, and plenty of Flamingos.
We highly recommend it.

Great experience - It was a great trip to a nice snorkel spot at the saltworks and to the flamingos further north. Jos and Christa were super nice and gave great guidance. We recommend the tour without restriction. Our kiddies are 8 and 9 and loved it.

Fun trip - We had a very nice snorkel trip with a lot of fish; barracuda, glas fish and a lot more. We did not see a turtle but they showed us the spots where they usually are and we will try by ourselves another time.
After snorkeling we had a little trip to a beautiful spot with flamingos. Our guides were fun and shared a lot of Infos about Bonaire life.

Best Snorkel experience! - Jim was great, very knowledgeable. It was a great experience to have our own personal tour vs. the cruise ship options that were larger groups. We truly had a personalized experience. I've snorkeled a few times and this was the best, we saw so much, and Jim gave up facts along the way.

Great snorkeling! - Great snorkeling, Jim even joined us in the water to make sure we saw turtles and many tropical fish. We also saw wild donkeys and many flamingos. His car is in rough shape, though, so be forewarned.

Amazing Bonaire for Amazing Snorkeling Tours - Jim is an excellent guide. He was very attentive to our safety and comfort. His equipment was very good. He checked on our shoe sizes and brought water shoes and fins to fit. He knows where to find the turtles. There were 5 waiting for us! He also knows where to find fish! He gave us tips on diving technique. He was friendly and fun! He was also right on time.
My husband and I both enjoyed the tour very much. We both highly recommend Jim and his company, Amazing Bonaire. Thank you, Jim! Your company is well named.

No experience - Unfortunately, our experience was cancelled about 5 minutes prior to our scheduled excursion time due to their car not working, leaving us to have to find last minute alternate plans for our day in Bonaire. He was prompt in requesting my refund though and he was apologetic.
