Bonaire in a nutshell
Located around 50 miles north of the Venezuelan coast the Caribbean island of Bonaire measures 24 miles long by around 5 miles at its widest point. It is the most eastern of the Dutch Caribbean islands.
Bonaire is a Mecca for diving and watersports generally – especially kitesurfing and windsurfing. The island offers a range of adventure travel, vacation adventures and holiday activities and also plays a leading role in nature preservation.
Bonaire is outside the hurricane belt, features some 350 miles of nature trails as well as a 13,500-acre national park which covers just under one-fifth of the island. Curacao is located around 30 miles away and Aruba 86 miles.
The south of the island is at sea level, features salt pans (saliñas), and is more lush than the north. The north is more hilly and scenic but with sparse vegetation made up mainly by low shrubs and cacti.
The highest point on the island is 790ft and Dutch is the official language (the island is part of the Netherlands). On land you’ll discover an array of exciting adventure activities and eco-adventures.
The island’s protected coral reefs teem with fish so Bonaire is a diver’s Mecca. There are 86 official dive sites around Bonaire, 54 of which are accessible easily from the shore.
Why visit Bonaire
