About this experience
Get ready to dive into the best of Bonaire’s north side! We’ll start at 1000 Steps, where you can take in the stunning coastal views and maybe spot a sea turtle or two. From there, we’ll cruise along scenic routes with plenty of breathtaking viewpoints.
Next stop: Gotomeer, a gorgeous saltwater lake where you can watch flamingos in their natural habitat. After soaking in the tranquility of Gotomeer, we’ll head to Rincon, the island’s oldest village. We might stop for a quick local snack at Posada Para Mira before visiting the Cadushy Distillery, where you can taste their unique cactus liqueur.
We’ll wrap up the tour with more can’t-miss stops, including the panoramic views from Seru Largu and a visit to the intriguing Indian Inscriptions (cave paintings) on the east side of the island.
This tour is packed with history, culture, and jaw-dropping scenery. Bring your camera, your curiosity, and a sense of adventure—this is Bonaire at its best!
