Fun & Activities
Now it’s time for the really fun-part of your vacation... for most, diving and snorkeling will be a major part of that. Others may dedicate their time to windsurfing or any other activity. But still, you can also do just nothing and relax...!

 

Diving
Scuba diving has become extremely popular, due in part to places like Bonaire, which has taken great pains to preserve the underwater world by establishing one of the first marine parks in the Caribbean. The other reason Bonaire has become such a popular destination is the wide variety of fish life and the ease of diving that the island offers. Bonaire's pristine reefs and diverse marine life are unique to the Caribbean. Because the waters around Bonaire have been protected by an actively managed marine park for the past 25 years, Bonaire today ranks amongst the top four best diving destinations in the world! The island's location in the south Caribbean gives it an arid climate with little rain fall; consequently, the waters are exceptionally clear of silt, calm, and diveable year round. It is an ideal destination for underwater photographers. Water temperatures average a warm 78-84°F (25.6-28.9°C), with visibility averaging over 100 feet (30m), and frequently reaching up to 150 feet (50m).

Snorkeling
Did you know that world-wide, snorkelers outnumber divers by a wide margin? The fact that less than 50% Bonaire's visitors are scuba divers is also a statistic that proves that you don't have to go under the water to enjoy our beautiful marine park. If you can swim, you can put on a mask and start enjoying the wonderful sea creatures and the coral formations. You will be able to float effortlessly and observe the feeding and courtship rituals of the reefs many residents. There is nothing in Bonaire's water that is dangerous, but be sure not to touch anything as you may harm it and disturb the delicate natural balance of the reef. Snorkeling is great entertainment for all members of the family no matter what age.

 

 

 

 

Windsurfing
Windsurfers could not ask for a better spot than Lac Bay on the East Coast of Bonaire. What has made this area so popular is the 90% chance of favorable winds and the 100% assurance of a sheltered, shallow bay to challenge the experts to sail and entice the novice into learning this fast paced sport. Beginners can start to learn in knee deep water allowing for easy recovery from falls while the bay's protective barrier reef lets them gain confidence on the calmest of waters. More experienced sailors can venture out into the more challenging blue-green swells where there is still some protection from large waves. It is here that the wind kicks up a few clicks and the thrills of the sport are realized. The even more experienced and adventurous can sail Lac Bay's outer edges where the mast high swells and strong winds guarantee sailing conditions that are world class. The two windsurf shops, Jibe City and Bonaire Windsurf Place are located right on the edge of the bay itself. They rent top quality equipment and offer all levels of instruction.
