Klein Bonaire

This afternoon, a group of us went out to Klein Bonaire, which is small uninhabited island off the west coast of Bonaire. We took a water taxi out there and snorkeled for a couple of hours. Saw a bunch of fish along with some new ones that I have yet to see. On top of all the fish swimming around, there was a ton of blade fire coral. I had a close call to touching it and had one of my friends pull me a way from it since I was floating right above it after taking off my snorkel gear and relaxing in the shallows. The waves were moving us around a lot and I ended up floating closer to this fire coral than I was anticipating.

  1. Getting to know your tropical fish! are the fish easier to identify than the coral?
