Marked site BNMP #14
To
the north of Old Blue are three beautiful pillars,
unique to Bonaire, that have broken from the cliff
along shore and fallen to a depth of 30 feet. There
is an abundant growth of hard corals, gorgonians
and sponges on the face of each, which provides
shelter for schoolmasters, grunts, and goatfish.
These pillars give the site its alternate name:
Mushroom City. Depth 20-80 feet (6-25 meters).
