About this site

Forest is a boat dive off Klein Bonaire, reached only by boat. The site is a steep drop-off covered in soft corals, which gives it the look of an underwater forest, and it is rated intermediate. Depths reach a maximum of about 30.5 metres (100 feet).

A small cave at about 30 metres is the focal point of the site. Loggerhead turtles, nurse sharks and moray eels have been spotted near it, and nurse sharks in particular have been seen in the cave itself. The reef around it is healthy and full of fish, and black coral formations are a feature of the site.
