Date adopted: 11 June 1981
Designer: Bonaire Island Council
Symbolism: The flag features a white field with a large black compass star outlined in blue, symbolizing the seafaring heritage and the island's location in the Caribbean Sea. The yellow triangle represents the sun and the island's bright future, while the blue triangle stands for the sea. The black compass star also represents the four cardinal directions, emphasizing guidance and navigation.
- Pantone colours: Pantone 286 C (Blue), Pantone Yellow C, Black, White

- Hanging protocol: The flag of Bonaire (country code 'bq') is typically hung with the white diagonal band running from the lower hoist-side corner to the upper fly-side corner, with the blue triangle on top and the yellow triangle at the bottom, and the black compass star centered on the white band.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is confusing the orientation of the diagonal white band, or misplacing the black compass star, which should be centered on the white band and not shifted.
