The flag of Bonaire, adopted in 1981, features a diagonal white and blue background separated by a yellow band. In the white section, there is a black compass with a red, six-pointed star, representing the island’s navigational heritage and the unity of its people. The blue symbolizes the sea, yellow represents the sun, and the white is the sky.
