rubytue Posted July 31, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 31, 2022 We have one of those really long port times (8am-11pm). Apparently, this is driving my brain crazy after so many cruises with 6-8 hour stops 😂 in a perfect world, we would rent a car/golf cart and drive to see some things (primary goal: flamingos). And then we’d somehow get to Klein Bonaire for a drift snorkel. I was looking at the water taxis, woodwind, and seacow. Seacow has an evening snorkel that sounds like it would hit Klein Bonaire during daylight hours, then sunset, the a night snorkel (H would like that, I’d probably pass). But they haven’t gotten back to be. I’m driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to do this. Maybe a morning snorkel and afternoon/evening car tour? But, wildlife like morning best, so I would think that getting the car early and getting out to the salt flats early would be best. But, I’m stumped finding times for snorkel boats. Any tips?

CGinMTL Posted July 31, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Woodwind snorkeling is a must in Bonaire. I would book snorkeling 1st. And work the rest of the day around that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear the are still around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topspot Posted August 1, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) If Woodwind is not available, You could reserve a car or golf cart ( I'd do a car so you could see more of the island), before picking that up, take earliest water taxi to Klein Bonaire, do the snorkel, get water taxi back, then pick up car/golf cart to go to explore the island . Just about anywhere you snorkel in Bonaire will be a drift snorkel, but the coral at Klein Bonaire is awesome. When we stayed on the Island, we saw flamingos near the salt flats, but also on the northern end of the island near the oil storage tanks. If you are driving on your own, you could also make a stop and the Kadushy distillery, where they make a liquor from cactus on the island. We also did a night snorkel with Brenda from H20 Visions Bonaire in January 2020 when we did a land vacation here. She does Island tours too https://www.h2ovisionsbonaire.com/ Edited August 1, 2022 by topspot clarification 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
