On this tour an experienced guide will lead you to the wildly beautiful East side of Bonaire. Often missed by tourists, the east side of the island includes breathtaking views of crashing waves hitting the rocky coast, cliff-like cave corals, “bocas” or mouths of the sea and unobstructed views. Numerous boats ship-wrecked on this side of the island before a lighthouse was put in place and there’s proof that at one point native Indians inhabited some of the cliff coves.
Next your guide will take you to one such cove and show you Indian inscriptions that are believed to be markings of the Arawark Indians. They have been dated back to at least the 15th century.
Our next stop will be Boca Onima where you can feel the power of the waves surging against Bonaire’s shore and view the wind turbines that play a crucial role in supplying energy to the land. Just be sure to hold on to your hat!
Throughout this journey, your guide will be pointing out nature, history and telling you about Bonaire culture. You will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions and explore.
