The reef that encircles Bonaire and Klein Bonaire is populated with hundreds of species of fish, from queen angels to spotted drum, from French grunts to barracuda, from the venomous scorpionfish and lionfish, from turtles to iridescent squid, from all varieties of eels to spotted trunkfish, from snapper and grunts to tiny frogfish to seahorses and eagle and manta rays.
