Belnem, Punt Vierkant & Lima
A long southern residential and coastal zone near the airport, dive sites and several of Bonaire’s best-known accessible beaches.
History
In the current statistical classification, Belnem and Lima form part of the Tera Cora district. Punt Vierkant is mainly a locally used name for the south-western coastal area. Most residential development is part of Kralendijk’s southward expansion; no separate, well-documented founding history is available for the three areas.
