Boat access is the practical choice; shore access is very difficult, and the site rewards a simple plateau-to-slope plan.
About Bloodlet (12)
Bloodlet is a Bonaire boat dive with a broad sandy plateau above a steep reef face. The site is difficult to reach from shore, so most divers use a boat and follow the plateau before the reef drops away. Expect coral-rich structure, turtles, barracuda, and the usual west-side reef fish along the slope.

Local Intel For Bloodlet (12)
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
This is a boat dive over a sandy plateau that drops into a steep reef face. Keep the first leg simple and use the plateau before following the slope.
Freedive
Not a freedive-first site; the boat-access setup and deeper reef make scuba the better fit.
Snorkel
Not a snorkel site; the access pattern is boat-based and the reef drops too quickly for casual surface use.
