Jeff Davis Memorial 32Zr is a Bonaire shore dive with a steep reef step-down.
Jeff Davis Memorial 32Zr is a Bonaire shore dive on the north coast where a shallow coral garden rolls into a steeper reef with active cleaning stations and a deeper drop-off beyond the main viewing zone. It rewards steady buoyancy, patient observation, and a calm morning plan, with the best diving often happening where the reef structure is most active rather than at the deepest edge.

Scuba Diving
A Bonaire reef dive with a shallow coral garden, active cleaning stations, and a steeper drop-off into deeper water.
Freediving
Possible only in the shallow reef zone, but the site is better as scuba because the best coral and cleaning stations sit deeper.
Snorkeling
Casual snorkeling only reaches the shallow edge; the best features are below comfortable snorkel depth.
