SWIMTREKKING

THE new water activity on the island!

Visiting Bonaire west coast while swimming in its clear waters along selected routes, gives you the opportunity to have a different view of the island, both underwater and shoreside. It is open to everyone in good physical fitness. Following trained guides, taking with you all you need (water, food, cellphone, camera, etc.) in special sealed floating boat-shaped “backpack”, you’ll be amazed of this different way of trekking in the sea water!

DIVING

The Bonaire Marine Park, created more than 25 years ago, has managed and protected the original ecosystem until today. Bonaire has been voted for the sixth straight year-in-a-row, the #1 Top Dive Destination Overall (Caribbean/Atlantic) in Scuba Diving Magazine’s Readers Choice Awards 2008. Diving is the most popular activity on Bonaire. Here you have 85 dive sites, on most of them you can dive from the shore. What else would you wish?

SNORKELING

Another very popular activity on Bonaire, you can see lots of fishes everywhere along the west coast. Water shoes needed to get into the water, then you are free to move in the calm clear water worrying only about having time enough to see the colorful creatures animating it.

WINDSURFING

Bonaire is a world famous windsurfing island. A 15-25 knots wind blows from December through August, while it becomes 12-18 knots from September through November. Sorobon (Lac Bay), the most famous spot, is a flat clear water lagoon, 50-80 cm deep… THE windsurf paradise! If you want waves, Lac Cai is also nearby, just the opposite side of the lagoon, where it is open to the ocean.

SAILING

Why not to try some sailing in front of the boulevard of Kralendijk, or more towards Klein Bonaire?

Otherwise take a trip on the Samur, an authentic 56’ Siamese junk, for a snorkel sail to Klein Bonaire, or a drink at sunset, or better a Thai dinner.

And more: a sailing trip with a catamaran? Mushi Mushi is the answer!

BOATING
