No, but I will tell you that there is very good shore snorkeling all over Bonaire. You don't need to book an excursion unless that is your preference.

We took this excursion while on the Emerald last April. The Samur is an interesting vessel, and the crew is wonderful. The owners son entertained us by climbing the rigging and showing off. He was a hoot.

The snorkeling along the reef at Klein Bonaire was incredible. The guide pointed out all the sea life to the group and was very knowledgeable.

The beach was very nice, also, if you are a beach person, but I don't remember much in the way of facilities.

I may be able to find a picture or two if you are interested.

Ditto
I did this trip last November while on the Emerald. One of the highlights of my trip.
