'Tables' at touristic spots, ment for description of the site, with nothing on it: all over the island!
These used to be the orientation points for ships.Bonaire is very flat, so you can see them from far, although they are only some 5 metres high (Elly stands further away)
This is a parody (or piece of art) based on the wooden direction signs that are used here

Diving boats use the same locations as shore divers/snorkelers. Every official diving spot has a buoy with which the boats van 'anchor'
Typical 'landscape': several different types of corals/sponges and fish swimming between them

A piece of coral, severely damaged during the storm 7 years ago, still offers great shelter to small fish..

After sunset at Eden Beach
The swiming pool offers a good possibility to wash of the salt, to warm al little (after snoreling in the evening) or to cool a little (after snorkeling in the early afternoon)
Two minutes after I did this (allowing fay to focus the camara on the jellyfish) we found out this is one of the most dangerous species....!

The showers are great. Cann't see much further than the pier
Typical for Eden Beach: the coral 'platform', only 40 cm of water above it. From the edge of the platform the water is some 70 cm deeper. You can see the fish swimming.
Other side of the pier: same
