For your safety and convenience, please keep your vehicle's doors unlocked and the windows partially down to signal that the car is open. Avoid leaving any valuables in the vehicle; take everything with you or be prepared for the possibility of loss. It's best not to lock your glovebox. Most rental cars are manual transmissions, so be sure to use the parking brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling. Note that there are no traffic lights on the island, and you'll encounter many pedestrians, cyclists, and scooter riders. Beeping is a common way for locals to greet each other, so don’t be surprised if you hear it often.

Yes. As of July 1, 2022, Bonaire has implemented a new entry tax. This tax replaces the 'tourist tax' and 'car rental' tax that visitors paid. Visitors will have to pay $75.00 per visit per person for ages 13 and above. For ages 12 and below and former Netherland Antilles residents, will have to pay $10.00 per visit per person. This tax can be paid digitally https://tourismtax.bonairegov.com/ or upon arrival at the airport. On July 1, 2024, the first three changes following the tourist tax evaluation will take effect: 1) The validity of the tax paid is extended to 1 month 2) Island children not living on Bonaire go to the low rate of $10 per person. 3) Exemption for all Bonairian students studying full-time abroad Every effort has been made to have these changes become effective per July 1, 2024.

For now, these are checked manually at the airport or at the port. For more information please visit: https://bonairegov.com/inwoners/toeristenbelasting

Yes. The sea around Bonaire and Klein Bonaire - the Bonaire National Marine Park (BNMP) - is protected and managed by STINAPA. All users of the Marine Park must pay an entrance fee known as the nature tag. All users of Bonairean waters are required to pay a nature fee. In the past, there were two types of Nature Fee, one for scuba divers and one for other activities. Since January 1st 2023, all visitors pay the same price: $40. Purchase it here: https://stinapa.bonairenaturefee.org/​ Permits include access to the National Park. Permits are sold on a calendar year basis.  The fee is used to preserve and maintain the marine park and national park.

The Marine Park includes all the waters surrounding Bonaire and Klein Bonaire, from the high-tide mark to 60 meters (200 feet) of depth. This is an area of about 27 km² (6672 acres) and includes the coral reef, sea grass and mangroves. Lac and Klein Bonaire are both a RAMSAR site and therefore internationally recognized as important wetlands areas.

Yes, the cost is the Nature Fee. You will need a valid ID and proof of payment for the Nature Fee. We suggest bringing photocopies so you don't need to leave these items in your vehicle while you are out exploring.

We recommend bringing your snorkel mask, booties, fins, and, of course, your bathing suit! We recommend wearing a rash guard, skin suit, or wetsuit for sun protection, as this eliminates the need for sunscreen, which can be harmful to the coral reefs. The rocky shores make booties a safer and more comfortable choice for getting in and out of the water. These garments will keep you protected from the sun and stings while also helping to preserve the marine environment. If you don’t have snorkel gear, don’t worry! There are plenty of dive shops on the island where you can easily rent or buy everything you need.

We’re thrilled to recommend XProDivers to all our guests for an unforgettable diving adventure! Whether you’re looking to take a course, rent tanks, or explore Klein Bonaire on a boat ride, they’ve got everything you need. And as a special treat, you’ll get a fantastic 10% off their dive packages just for being our guest. Dive in and make the most of your Bonaire experience with XProDivers!

We shop at following: Warehouse:  Best prices. Pietersz:  Great bulk and quality meats. Van den Tweel:  Most modern style with good vegetarian options  Zhung Kong:  Great selection of American products Best Cellar:  Best prices on wine & liquor Fresh fish can be bought directly from the fisherman about 30 seconds away from your door.

Sorobon (fun to watch windsurfers),  Lac Cai (the weekend bar is open on Sundays),  Pink Beach (tumbled coral beach),  Atlantis (fun to watch kitesurfers),  No Name beach at Klein,  Slagbaai in Washington Slagbaai Park Donkey Beach (very busy on Sundays with local people)

Echo Parrot Sanctuary tour Donkey Sanctuary – buy a few bags of carrots & cut them into quarter size pieces so you will have plenty to feed the donkeys.  Don’t give them all out in the beginning or you won’t have enough to give by the end of the drive. Snorkel – You need thick sole dive boots & open heeled fins. Bari’s Reef at the broken down pier – it’s like swimming in an aquarium. In front of our property - you will see turtles, pufferfish, filefish, parrotfish, trunkfish, eels, sea urchins, tarpons, sergeant majors, bonefish, goatfish, angelfish, blennies, and if you can spot them you’ll see octopus, lobsters, spotted eagle rays, ocean triggerfish and lots of juveniles. Lac Bay – walk out through the shallow bay to the reef and check out the beautiful reef, swim to the left to see the elk corals & on the way in you will see large conch. La Dania’s Leap – take a jump into the pristine corals & drift to Karpata. Wayaka – spend that day snorkeling at Wayaka I, II & III in Washington Slagbaai Park. Klein – we suggest going to Klein with SeaCow (if you are more independent) or Woodwind (if you like more guidance) or do both – but then do Woodwind first then SeaCow. Mangrove kayak & snorkel – we think the snorkel is the best part of this tour, but you want to go with a small tour company & be the first to go on the snorkel.  Otherwise, everyone will kick up the sand and you can’t see anything – especially when there are a lot of people.  ​ Sit at the boulevard with a cold drink & watch the sunset. Enjoy ice cream at Luciano’s or Gio's in town. Yhanni makes authentic Venezuelan arepas behind Budget Marine. Hike up Brandaris – you have to take the short route in Washington Slagbaai Park because you can’t get there from the long route & you can’t backtrack. Bird watching – see flamingos, parrots, parakeets, herons, egrets, pelicans, laughing gulls, ducks, etc.   Weekend Bar has live music on Sundays at Lac Cai. There is so much more!  Just ask!

Yes, credit cards are widely accepted in Bonaire. Most restaurants, shops, and service providers accept major credit cards such as Visa and MasterCard. It's always a good idea to carry some cash for smaller purchases or places that may not accept cards.

The currency used in Bonaire is the United States Dollar (USD). Although Bonaire is part of the Caribbean Netherlands, and the official currency of the Netherlands Antilles was previously the Netherlands Antillean Guilder (ANG).

It’s a great idea to make a dinner reservation, especially during the high season when restaurants can be busy. You can easily check availability by visiting their website, sending a WhatsApp message, or stopping by the restaurant. Securing your spot in advance ensures you’ll enjoy a fantastic dining experience without the wait! For a full list of recommended restaurants, please visit our website under Food & Drink. You'll find a variety of options to suit every taste and occasion.

Tipping at restaurants is entirely at your discretion. Typically, tips are shared among the entire staff, including waiters, bartenders, hosts, and kitchen staff. While most restaurants accept credit cards for the bill, they often request that tips be given in cash. This helps ensure that the staff receives your gratuity directly.

In many restaurants, especially in Bonaire, once you're seated, the table is yours for the entire evening. There's no rush to finish your meal, unlike in some other countries like the USA. That's why your waiter or waitress won’t automatically bring you the check. When you're ready to leave, simply request the bill from your server, and they'll be happy to bring it to you. This allows for a more relaxed and leisurely dining experience.

The dress code is casual to casual nice. Feel free to dress comfortably for a relaxed dining experience!
