PETRIE'S PILLAR
Bonaire
Petrie's pillar has some resemblance with Andrea I and II. The name of the dive site is special. Captain Don, Bonaire's best known diving pioneer, named this dive site after a friend, as a wedding gift. The name also also refers to the pillar coral that is frequently seen here. Petri's Pillar has a limited current and is therefore suitable for divers of all levels.
Particulars
Enter the water from the boat and discover Petrie's Pillar. Look for the many different species that live here and see if you can spot the pillar coral that this dive site is named after.
