1,000 Steps
One of Bonaire’s most photogenic coastal spots, 1,000 Steps is a little slice of paradise tucked below rugged limestone cliffs. Despite the name, you’ll only tackle about 67 stone steps to reach the shore—though it might feel like more if you’re carrying dive tanks. At the bottom, a small, pebbly beach meets crystal-clear turquoise water, with a healthy reef just offshore. Divers and snorkelers love it for the curious sea turtles, vibrant coral gardens, and calm conditions. It’s a place that feels just wild enough to still be a secret, even if it’s on every local’s list of favorites.
