About White Hole (62)
White Hole (62) is an east-coast Bonaire dive site off Lac Bay with a white sand plateau, reef structure, and a more exposed feel than the island's sheltered west-coast reefs. It is best for divers who want tarpon schools, turtles, rays, barracuda, and other bigger-water wildlife rather than an easy sand-bottom swim. Plan it as a local guide dive where the weather window, buoyancy, and the day's water read matter.
