Kralendijk (crawl-en-dike) is the capital of Bonaire. The tropics and the Netherlands meet in this pink and orange town, whose name means “coral dike.” North of town along the coast is Boca Onima , a grotto inscribed with Indian drawings. At the northern end of the island is Bonaire's inland lake, Goto Meer , home to great numbers of flamingos. The best time to view these colorful birds is early morning. The chief breeding ground is south at Pekelmeer Flamingo Sanctuary. Learn More...
