PLAYA FUNCHI
Bonaire
Playa Funchi is a beautiful dive site, which can be reached by swimming 120 meters from the beach. During your dive you'll be accompanied by horse mackerels, parrot fish, trumpet fish and lots of curious small crabs, shimps and squid. Also pay attention to the remnants of the Washington Plantation, which was established here in earlier times. The foundations of the old pier are still recognizable.
