Conch

The beautiful Bonaire conch. The most common species in the Island’s waters is the Strombus gigas, commonly referred to as the Pink or Queen Conch. At Lac Bay large piles of empty shells serve as a reminder of the times when the Bonaire Conch was still harvested. Today, the species is protected and removing conch from the Bonaire waters, or even taking empty shells on your flight home, is strictly forbidden.
