Boka Simon is a small beach along Willemstad’s Penstraat coast, with sand, rocks and a curved stone jetty that helps shelter the bay. Bring water shoes for the rocky patches and a mask for a look beneath the surface.
There’s history here, too. This former fishing harbor takes its name from Simon Felida, a Bonairean who settled along this stretch of coast. Today, the reef gives snorkelers and divers another reason to get to know this little corner of Willemstad.
