There are now daily fees for using the yacht moorings in Kralendijk in Bonaire. These are: NAf10 (US$5.65) for yachts smaller than 18 meters (60 feet) and NAf15 (US$8.47) for yachts larger than 18 meters (60 feet). Yachts currently pay no other fees to use Bonaire waters.

Anchoring is still permitted, but with all the moorings, the anchoring area has been further restricted. It is now: Between Karel's Beach Bar and the northern town pier. You need permission from the Harbormaster to anchor. The collection of fees and maintenance of the moorings will be done by the Harbour Village Marina as agents of the Bonaire Marine Park

 

Those of us sailing S/V ¡Qué Bárbara! would like to update your Cruising Guide info for Kralendijk, Bonaire: The mooring balls off the shore are now on a first come first served basis only, with $10 US per night payment made in person at Harbour Village Marina. Availability can be obtained via email from Carlos Rodriguez, Marina Manager at carodriguez@harbourvillage.com but is no guarantee. Hope to see the new info in your next edition--Captains Barbara Fleming and Bob Peyser
