Bonaire is home to numerous fishing boats, and many locals set out to catch fish. If you’re a fan of deep-sea fishing, you’re in the right place on Bonaire. The harbor in Kralendijk is filled with small boats that head out to sea whenever possible. Wahoo and various types of tuna are common catches. The use of large nets and harpoons is prohibited on Bonaire, and fishing in diving areas, harbors, and within 20 meters from the shore in Kralendijk is also prohibited. Even at a distance of 500-1000 meters from the coast, the water can be as deep as 300 meters. Local fishermen often prepare the caught fish right on the dock, and you can buy them on the spot while taking a stroll along the boulevard in Kralendijk.

My name is Casper Douma and I am a photographer. Since 2014 I’ve been living on this beautiful island, surrounded by a fringing reef. At first glance, you may see mostly cacti and drought, but Bonaire is a little gem if you get to know it better. I would like to take you on one of my photography tours to show you all the special places of Bonaire. In small groups of maximum 4 people I give you a unique look at the beauty of Bonaire. Became curious? Take a look at my website! I wish you a lot of fun on beautiful Bonaire.”
