Kralendijk, Bonaire Port Reviews

Stop is great but, again, why arrive at 2 and leave at 9 is mystery. Next two stops would have been better stops for late departure

Our favorite port! Great island vibe. We took the water taxi to Klien Bonaire. There is a yellow stand when you get off the ship selling tickets for $25 pp roundtrip. Then walk a little to Karl's Bar to get the Caribe water taxi to the small uninhabited island. The beach was white powder sand and water was the best we ever experienced. The taxi will take you up current and drop you off so you can drift snorkel back to the beach. Warning! do not venture into the brush behind the beach. We took a little walk to see what was there. Got maybe 50 feet and looked at a hermit crab and lizard then noticed we were covered with mosquitos. We ran back and dove in the water but in the 2 or 3 minutes we got about 20 bites each.

Lovely place the people were dancing in there official costumes and it was beautiful. Since it was close to Christmas there were decorations all over the streets. Some were very unique showing there country. Had a wonderful time there.

Easy port to get around. We got a day pass at Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino for $20. 2 pools, beach access and restaurant/bar. Good place!!

Rent a golf cart! We went to the donkey sanctuary. Once in a lifetime experience. $9 to enter. We drove around the south end. Goats, donkeys,iguanas and flamingos everywhere.

The water is beautiful!! This is the best place to scuba dive or snorkel, make sure to pay extra sunscreen as the sun is intense there and you will burn very easy

We went on a glass bottom boat to view the coral reef near Klein Bonaire. It was impressive. And the tour operator, Paul, was good and funny. But I really would love to try a kayak tour at the Mangrove growth

We enjoyed going to a beach and relaxing. The island was very small and there were good opportunities to buy handmade jewelry near the ship.

I did a learning to scuba dive excursion. It was okay. I've done a better learning to scuba dive excursion on another cruise when we were able to see more. But it was a nice experience.
