“Family Friendly Destination” is not another marketing gimmick when it comes to Bonaire. Summer is family time on this special island. Your kids will have more fun and learn more about the marine environment, international cultures and island ecosystems in one week on Bonaire than a year in school. They’ll have a chance to sample new foods; learn the nuances of the wind on a sailboard; get their flipper groove going and study life underwater; try kayaking in a mangrove forest; the list goes on and on. And there’s nothing like chilling at sunset with your kids recounting and celebrating the days discoveries, completely rejuvenated and at the same time exhausted from the day’s adventures. Sleep, wake, have fun, repeat.
You don’t even have to be each day’s ‘fearless leader’. Bonaire has some exceptional kid’s programs that are organized to allow moms and dads some time to do their thing.
