I just found out that the new ferry has arrived in Bonaire today!!!! It will go from Bonaire to Curacao twice daily for only $50.00!!! Boy is that going to solve a lot of getting stuck in Curacao problems!!! I have some pics that I will forward over to Jake to post.

Any Idea how long the trip will take from Cur to Bon? The photo looks great, and it looks like a high speed cat. Is there any info on the boat available. ie. power, design capacity, etc...Thanks. Tom

Thomas, she is definitely a "fast cat". An article in the Bonaire Reporter said the trip will take between 1:15 to 1:40.

Kleine Werf is in the canal, directly across from the cruise ship terminal in Willemstad. Here's a map, with Kleine Werf circled in red.

Forgot to add that it is approximately a 30 minute taxi ride to the Curacao airport from Kleine Werf.

Steve...If I remember it's about an $18 to $20 taxi fare from dock to airport. Still about the same? And is there a surcharge for baggage and extra passengers? I've only traveled alone with no bags.
|
By Steve and Sandy Oliver on Sunday, October 28, 2001 - 12:44 pm: |
Barry, I have no idea. Our cab ride to the Plaza and back to CUR was comped by ALM. (I wonder if the cabbie ever got paid?)
|
By michael gaynor on Sunday, October 28, 2001 - 4:44 pm: |
I imagine there will be a published taxi rate for airline passengers, etc. soon. I am sure Jake and TCB will post it on infobonaire. BTW Curacao has a fairly good public transortation system from town to Hato Airport.

There is shopping near the harbour where the ferry takes off from Curacao. Check in with the ferry first, I think you have to be there at least 1 hour in advance but I'm not sure.
