About Alice in Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland is a south Bonaire shore dive near the salt flats, known for a sandy approach, a broad first reef, and a second reef beyond the channel. Soft and hard corals, large sponges, and roaming reef fish shape the site, while the outer reef is where larger pelagics and rays are more likely to pass.
Safety & Access
Safety Notes
The rocky approach and shore exit are easiest in calm water. Use a compass and conservative gas and depth discipline if crossing the sand channel to the second reef, and treat the outer reef as a more advanced extension.
Access Restrictions
Free public shore access with roadside parking near the entry point.
Legal Notes
A valid Bonaire Nature Tag is required before diving or snorkeling in the Bonaire National Marine Park.
