Pink Beach (53)
Beginner-friendly Bonaire shore dive with reef, rays, and turtles.
South-coast shore entry with an easy sand channel, a shallow reef close to shore, and a deeper edge that can pick up current.
About Pink Beach (53)
Pink Beach is a shore-access dive and snorkel site on Bonaire's south coast, with an easy sand entry that quickly reaches a reef and cleaning-station country. The shallow section is beginner-friendly, while the drop-off brings current, eagle rays, turtles, and other reef traffic into view. It is also a practical beach stop for non-divers, so the site works well as a relaxed half-day rather than a hard dive day. Start early if you want the calmest water and the easiest surface conditions.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Reef diving with a sandy approach into the reef.
Freediving
The shallow reef can work for relaxed freediving in calm conditions, but the deeper edge and occasional current make this more of a snorkel-and-dive site than a breath-hold destination.
Snorkeling
This is one of Bonaire's easier snorkel sites. The shallow reef starts close to shore and the sheltered southwest coast keeps wind and waves down most days.
Chill / Non-diver
Suitable for non-divers to spend time on the beach.
