OVERVIEW

Discover Bonaire’s striking natural landscapes and enjoy a relaxing Caribbean beach escape on an excursion combining scenic sightseeing with time at Windsock Beach Club. Begin with a drive along the island’s southern coastline, where shimmering pink salt flats, towering white salt mounds, and brilliant turquoise waters create a picturesque setting. Along the way, keep watch for Bonaire’s graceful flamingos in their protected habitat and discover the historic Slave Huts, reminders of the island’s colonial past and salt-producing heritage. Continue toward the southernmost point of the island for views of the historic Willemstoren Lighthouse, Bonaire’s oldest lighthouse, before making your way to Windsock Beach Club. Upon arrival, settle into the laid-back island atmosphere and enjoy approximately two and a half hours of relaxation beside the Caribbean Sea. Unwind on a beach chair, soak up the sunshine, or cool off in the inviting turquoise waters. Those looking for a little adventure can explore the island’s underwater beauty while snorkeling, while others may prefer to relax with a refreshing drink or enjoy food from the beach bar at their own expense. After your beach break, reboard your transportation for the short return journey to the cruise port.
