Bonaire is paradise. Before we embarked on this vacation, we reviewed the helpful and informative trip reports on this site and read about the flora and fauna on the island, but nothing could prepare us for the wonders we encountered, both in and out of water. Everyday, while we were in Bonaire, was filled with pleasant surprises and National Geographic moments. Here are some of the highlights:

Really enjoyed your descriptive report. We will be there in mid Sept. Since we will only be snorkeling, I was most interested in your snorkel report. We will check them out. Also, thanks for the ALM tips. We will fly the same route from Miami. Wonder if you had a long layover in Curacao? We have about 6 hrs and were wondering if it would be worth it to take a quick tour of the island.

Hi 2Nancys, glad you enjoyed our report. We stayed in Curacao for 2 days before returning to Boston but it was more than enough. The capital town, Willemstad, is about 20 minutes away ($18 by taxi) from the airport; its colorful architecture and the floating bridge are reason enough to warrant a visit. However, if you want to tour the entire island, 6 hours might not be enough considering Curacao is much larger than Bonaire. As for snorkeling, Curacao doesn't offer the same great visibility and abundance of sealife as Bonaire does. Anyway, wish you a wonderful time in Bonaire. Regards, Alice and Richard
