Bonaire Beaches

[geecee1]

Our 4th Caribbean cruise but first time on Bonaire.

 

We are beach bums and after a day at sea on Ventura,looking to flop on a beach for the day.

 

Any suggestions on which are best for bathing and have a beach bar!!!!

Check out the Bonaire page on the ports section, plenty about the beaches there.

Hi Rosebaskets

 

We've been to Bonaire a couple of times, Divi Flamingo is no more than 5 minutes walk from the ship, come off the pier, turn right and walk along the shoreline. The beach is very small, no more tham 30 metres long with fine white sand and good snorkeliing. There is also a concrete pier lined with sunbeds and parasols. This pier is also home to large iguanas which is quite fascinating. There is also a small bar and seperate restaurant. As you say its part of the Divi Flamingo hotel & beach resort. There is an admission charge I think of about $10 which covers sunbeds etc

 

Sorabon beach is a naturist beach (the only one on the island) so be aware
