There are a number of reasons people visit our island. First timers generally
have heard about the climate, the water, the sun and what there is to do.
When asked, repeat visitors generally say that they did not have enough time
to do all they wanted to on their first visit. If it is the third or fourth
trip, the answer is basically the same but with this addition "It is
the warmth and friendliness of the people" that keeps visitors returning
year after year.
When visiting, spend time touring the island. You'll see salt flats, a beautiful
"pink beach", an old lighthouse, slave huts, Washington National
Park, a wildlife preserve and great spot for seeing animal species unique
to Bonaire, pink flamingos, beautiful Parroquets, lorets, big blue lizards
and three foot iguanas. Lac Bay, on the windward side of the island, has some
of the best windsurfing in the world.
