There are no miles and miles of white sandy beaches to be found on Bonaire. Most of the beaches on Bonaire are public with the exception of Harbour Village Resort where access is rectricted to guests and to those who have paid an entrance fee. Public nudity of any kind is illegal and insulting to the local people, except on Sorobon Beach (a privately owned nudist resort). Topless sunbathing and swimming is tolerated on non-locally used beaches.

Playa Chikitu

Playa Chikitu Lying in Washington National Park, Playa Chikutu is beautiful, but, alas, swimming is forbidden due to the enormous waves and the dangers that lurk underwater. You would be swept off your feet right after you walked in due to a strong current that passes the island on the north coast

Boka Kokolishi Also situated on the North Coast, Boka Kokolishi is not suited for swimming, but it is a beautiful place to hike along the rugged shoreline with its typical round shaped pools made of lava stone.

Boka Bartol This shore dive is the northernmost site in the Marine Park. Advanced divers may encounter strong currents. The recommended depth is from 20-80 feet, with interesting coral formations in the shallows. Many of the larger fish species abound, and there is a chance to see rays and Garden Eels in the sandy bottom.

Playa Funchi Lying on the Westernmost tip of the island, Playa Fuchi is definitely worth visiting when you want to see iguana's and lizards that roam around freely. It's also one of the recommended sites for a Bonaire Guide Snorkel.

Playa Frans At the North Point near Slagbaai. Hard to reach but definitely worth the effort. A very intimate place, with a quiet surf. You will love it there. But don't tell anyone, it's not a big place...
 
1000 Steps Beach

1000 Steps Beach Why is it called Thousand Steps? Because it is a long way down from the road. No problem for the young and well-trained, but when you are taking your scuba gear it requires quite an effort. The reward is that there are not many people even though is it a beautiful spot.
 
Bachelor Beach
Bachelor Beach
More...

Bachelor Beach Just a few hundres yards south of Playa Mangel is a staircase that leads to a thin strip of sand and a really great place fo a swim. Although there are no real tides on Bonaire, when the water is high it is difficult to lay out so check the waves before spreading your beach towel.
 
Pink Beach
