Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Karpata

Popular with shore divers. Karpata is located at the end of the one-way section on the coastal road. Known for its good visibility and panorama views, this site is great for wide-angle photographers. Divers can pose by huge ship anchors embedded in the coral, or over branching colonies of elkhorn, which stretch from ten feet up to the surface. Depth 20-100 feet (6-30 meters). Karpata is just to the East of the No Dive Zone, and offers some of the more spectacular diving on the island.On the stretch of road between Columbia and Karpata, 7 km North of Kralendijk.

I think Karpata is one of the best sites in Bonaire. It is truly stunning. Be careful about your depth as it can easily go deeper than 130. The ultimate dive would be tri-mix here. For the rest of us, double EAN tank and you can spend many hours down at a reasonable depth.
