The month's largest event in Caribbean Netherlands was a magnitude 4.1 earthquake near The Bottom, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands on 02 June 2026 at 04:46 UTC. A magnitude 4.1 earthquake radiates roughly 24 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is well above the Caribbean Netherlands monthly average of 2 events over the period we cover — an unusually active month, and up from the 1 recorded the previous month.

25% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 75% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). A substantial share of intermediate-depth events points to a subducting slab beneath the region rather than purely crustal faulting.

By band, the catalogue holds 3 in the magnitude 3 range, 1 in the magnitude 4 range.

Activity peaked on 02 June, when 2 events were recorded.

The month's largest events were M4.1 near The Bottom, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands on 02 June at 142 km; M3.4 near The Bottom, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands on 11 June at 140 km; M3.4 near The Bottom, Bonaire, Caribbean Netherlands on 02 June at 140 km.

That is 150% above the 2 events Caribbean Netherlands averages per month across the 5 months on record.
