All around Bonaire, Reef Renewal Bonaire is bringing damaged coral reefs back to life. In underwater nurseries, young corals grow strong before being planted back on the reef. With trained divers, science, and community hands, the ocean here is getting its color—and its future—back.
New pump-out stations have been installed at Harbour Village and Plaza Marina to collect wastewater from yachts. No more direct discharge into the sea—protecting both coral reefs and public health.
Between Belnem and Hato, 40 coastal lots are joining Bonaire’s vacuum sewer system. Once undeveloped, these sites let wastewater drain into the ground. Now, every drop will be collected, treated, and kept out of the sea.
Water Circles turns wastewater from a risk into a resource. At five sites across Bonaire, small treatment systems clean water locally so it can be used again. The payoff: a healthier reef and a more resilient island.
