Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at La Dianas Leap

La Dianas Leap is a recommended guided shore dive. This site has a colorful history! Back during the pioneering days of Bonaire-diving, Captain Don led groups of shore dives around the island. This site, definitely one of the more challenging on Bonaire (due to its blind leap into the water), was a good test of a diver's nerve! On one memorable day, only Diana (the sole female in the group of divers), was brave enough to leap off the coral cliff and complete the drift dive with Captain Don. Thus, she will always be remembered! On the stretch of road between Columbia and Karpata, 7 km North of Kralendijk.

One of the best dives on Bonaire. Have dove it many times solo and with buddies. Usually drop gear then drive truck to Karpata, park and walk back. Never felt much current in 8 visits to Bonaire. Go deeper 150'-165' right after the jump in, for some "caves" with grouper, tarpon and sometimes nurse sharks. Long dive to Karpata, you'll know you are there when you see the research grids. Great dive!
