RED BERYL
Bonaire
Red Beryl is an alternation between sandy areas and coral reefs. The first plateau lies at a depth of 3 meters and is mostly covered with soft corals. This area is followed by a sandy bottom that passes over into coral, with a drop-off at 9 meters. The most beautiful part lies between 10 and 15 meters. You'll spot lipfish, bullet fish and occasionally a tortoise.
