Coat of arms of Bonaire
Coat of arms of Bonaire
The coat of arms of Bonaire was established in 1986 by the island council,[1] when Bonaire was still part of the Netherlands Antilles. It remained the coat of arms of Bonaire after its dissolution and the subsequent change of Bonaire's constitutional status into a special municipality of the Netherlands in 2010.
It consists of a blue shield, above which a crown is placed. On the shield a compass, ship's wheel, and a red six-pointed star can be found. The royal decree of 20 September 2010, no. 10.002198 granted this arms to Bonaire as a public body of the Netherlands.
