TURTLE CITY
Bonaire
Turtle City or Turtle Country is a unique dive site. It's the huge number of turtles living here, that makes it special. During the day you'll find them resting on small stretches of sand between the coral. It is not unusual to spot 20 or more while diving. Look around for some activity. Some will be sleeping or eating or making their way to the surface to catch a breath of fresh air. Dive with a local guide, especially in harsh weather conditions.
Particulars
Enter the water from the shore or the boat. Turtle City is often combined with a White Hole. Both are magnificent dive sites.
Warnings
Always dive Turtle City with a local guide and preferably by boat. The dive site remains shallow for a long time.
