Bonaire Shore Excursions
Enjoy the Best Island Adventures on Bonaire Shore Excursions
You’ll be happy to know that when your Caribbean cruise ship docks in at Kralendijk, Bonaire, shore excursions on this lovely Southern Caribbean island, known as a diver’s paradise, offer much in the way of snorkeling, scuba, sailing, and other sea and sun activities.
If it’s beach time you’re after, book Bonaire shore excursions that take you to one or more of the island’s fabulous white-sand beaches on single or combo tours. From your Bonaire cruise, enjoy a day of pure relaxation at Spice Beach, sinking into a lounge chair and sipping a tropical drink. See the island sights, then chill out at Coco Beach. You can also cool off in the turquoise waters at Lac Cai, a stretch of beach off the beaten path, after an ecological adventure at Lac Bay National Park.
Bonaire’s reputation as a diver’s paradise is well known to Southern Caribbean cruise passengers, and on Bonaire cruise excursions you’ll enjoy the island’s best whether you’re new to the sport or a seasoned snorkeler or diver. You can choose glass-bottom boat rides and snorkeling, yacht cruising with snorkeling and champagne, semi-submarine sailing with snorkel or swim options, and one- or two-tank diving excursions at one or more of the island’s 63 official diving sites.
To explore the island’s rugged interior, its desert-like hills, and dark caverns, hop on an off-road vehicle for spectacular cross-island Bonaire shore excursions. On one expedition, you’ll ride up to the Subi Rincon hill to see an ancient cave that sheltered the Amerindians, the island’s first inhabitants. See the island’s oldest settlement, the village of the Arawak tribe, as well as the island’s highest point where you’ll enjoy spectacular views of land and sea. On another, you’ll see the island’s diverse wildlife, including wild donkeys, colorful iguanas, and pink flamingos, its desert-like terrain with huge cacti, and salt mountains beside the salt flats.
All cruise ships calling to Bonaire Island dock at Kralendijk, the capital city of Bonaire Island in the Netherlands Antilles, Dutch Caribbean. The city’s name means “coral reef” and Bonaire is an island country and one of the overseas territories of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (aka Holland). Bonaire is the second largest of the ABC islands in the Leeward Antilles group; Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao.
