About Alice in Wonderland (45)

Alice in Wonderland (45) is a quieter Bonaire shore dive on the island's leeward side, known for a double-reef layout with coral on both sides of a sandy channel. After a rocky shoreline entry and short swim out, the route opens into reef structure with sea fans, hard coral, and a second reef that rewards divers who navigate the crossing carefully. Expect generally clear water, usually light to moderate current, and reef life such as barracuda, morays, triggerfish, rays, shrimp, and angelfish. It suits divers who are comfortable with Bonaire-style shore entries and want a less-trafficked alternative to some of the island's busier south-west sites.
