Bonaire
has been long known for its world class diving, but in recent years
has also built up a reputation for its incredible windsurfing. This
is no surprise to us natives, because we knew that if one has a place
with consistent warm trade winds........ blowing on-shore every day.......in
an area with waist deep crystal clear water.........and a white sandy
bottom.........a beautiful beach in a natural protective lagoon.........
It
would inevitably become one of the best places to go windsurfing,
not just by you, but also with the entire family.
Yes,
that's right, Bonaire offers something for the whole family! From
ages 6 to 80+, all can enjoy the safe and easy sailing site at Lac
Bay, or simply relax on the beach, build a sand castle with your
kids, and watch your spouse speed by just several yards away.
As
one might expect from an Island set in the crystal waters of the
Caribbean, the natural beauty here is overwhelming. Pink feathered
flamingos, emerald green mangroves and a kaleidoscope of tropical
fish. But what sets this location apart from all the others is the
lifestyle. Pure, simple and unspoiled. You won't find any congested
high-rise hotels on the horizon, no exhaust belching buses filled
with frantic tourists lining up for a photo-op and no motorboats
in a frenzied race to nowhere. Instead, this is a place where you'll
become overwhelmed by all the things windsurfers live for.
There
is no place like Bonaire !!!
