1,000 Steps
La profundidad indica el rango desde la parte superior del punto hasta su máximo habitual; la "certificación recomendada" es el nivel que los operadores suelen exigir según las principales agencias, no una norma legal. Las corrientes y la visibilidad cambian a diario — considera todo esto como rangos de planificación.
Bonaire's most photographed entry starts with a staircase cut into the seaside cliff, sixty-seven steps that the climb back out inflates to the advertised thousand. The reward is one of the north coast's healthiest terraces: hillocks of star coral stepping down from the bright shallows, with hawksbill turtles working the slope and the odd eagle ray passing along the sand line. The site suits everything from a first fun dive to a long photography soak, and its white-pebble beach makes the surface interval part of the attraction. Go early; the small roadside parking fills by mid-morning.
El momento por el que vienes: Iconic staircase entry, star coral hills, dependable turtles
Topografía: Coral terrace sloping to sand, dominated by mountainous star coral
Entrada: Sixty-seven limestone stairs descend the cliff from the coastal road; they feel like a thousand on the climb back with gear.
Lo que debes saber antes de tirarte al agua
Riesgos: The stair climb with full gear is strenuous in heat; plan gas and energy for the exit.
Conservación: Inside the Bonaire National Marine Park: no touching, no gloves, no collecting.
