What are people saying about Bonaire
As you might expect, Bonaire excursions are largely water-based. With its incredible marine life and beautiful beaches, there are plenty of boat trips and snorkeling tours to enjoy the crystal-clear waters surrounding this Caribbean island. But there’s more to discover on dry land in Bonaire than you might think. The colorful and lively capital, Kralendijk, has plenty to offer, plus there’s lots to learn with historical landmarks and the island’s darker past. Be sure to experience the incredible underwater experiences in Bonaire, but don’t miss everything the island has to offer above water, too.

Yes, guided tours in Bonaire are worth it—they're the easiest and safest way to experience the island's pristine dive sites. Local guides will take you to the best spots to swim among turtles and tropical fish away from the crowds, and they'll provide insights into the marine life you'll see. Better yet, day tours often include round-trip transportation from your hotel—ideal if you're traveling without a car.
Per one customer who booked the Double Dip Snorkel Trip, " Amazing day snorkeling with a great crew! We were on a cruise ship that stopped in Bonaire, and we decided to snorkel for the day. The meeting spot was within walking distance from the ship, about 30 minutes walking. The crew was friendly, informative and fun. We had such a great day. We saw so many different species of fishes and even saw turtles. The crew provided us with snacks during both breaks in between snorkel spots. Tess was our guide, and she knew her stuff, providing us with information about the reefs, fish and surround area. We had a really great time, and I would highly recommend them if you are looking to do a great excursion while in Bonaire."
Bonaire tour prices vary depending on the duration and activities included. Guided tours on the shorter side start around US$40, such as quick kayaking excursions and island sightseeing tours. Expect to pay at least US$60 for shared snorkeling trips or upwards of US$125 per person for private boat charters.
A well-rated tour on the less expensive side is the Water Taxi to Klein Bonaire on the No Name Beach for US$26, which covers round-trip boat transportation to Klein Bonaire. However, you'll explore on your own once you get there, since the fee doesn't include snorkeling equipment or activities. The Marine Park—Private Boat charter with LOCAL Captain/ Guide is more expensive at US$550 per group of up to 10 people, but includes a private boat ride to Kleine Bonaire and the surrounding marine park, plus snorkeling equipment, refreshments on board, and your own guide to show you the corals and creatures below the surface.
Bonaire is best known for its turquoise waters and abundance of marine life, so most tours take you into the water—by boat or from the shore—for snorkeling or diving among corals and sea turtles. Out of the water, you can try your hand at landsailing, snap photos of the island's pink-colored salt pans, or spot wildlife such as flamingos and donkeys in Washington Slagbaai National Park.
Consider an all-day or multi-day tour to pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, the Washington Slagbaai National Park Tour in Bonaire takes you on a full-day off-roading adventure in the ecological reserve, where you'll swim and snorkel, tour a museum about the site (a former plantation), and hike to a coastal blowhole and panoramic viewpoint of the island.
Cruise passengers often stop in Bonaire for one day, enough time for a quick boat tour, but it’s best to spend at least four days enjoying the island’s outdoor activities at a relaxed pace. Use that time to dive or snorkel around wildlife-filled coral reefs, kayak through mangrove forests, and watch windsurfers at Lac Cai beach. With a full week, you’ll also have time for landsailing, hiking, and exploring the historical sites around Kralendijk.
