“Our trip on the Seacow was one I will always remember! The snorkeling was absolutely amazing. The crew took us to two sites off of Klein Bonaire, both with unique aspects like a coral wall or soft corals. They provided us with a solution to keep our goggles from fogging, which worked super well! The also provided delicious snacks and drink that were very refreshing after the snorkeling. Also, the crew was super knowledgeable about the reefs and marine life, and you could tell how much they care about what they do. I would highly recommend going on a trip on the Seacow!”

2.Bonaire Landsailing Adventures

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 652 reviews · from $65

Drive a three-wheeled blokart on Bonaire’s windy eastern side. Andrew, Donna, and the team provide a clear safety briefing, fit your sail to the wind and your size, and give you about 45 minutes on the track. No sailing experience is needed, and helmets, gloves, glasses, water, and free photos are available.

“This was a spur of moment decision to book the Landsailing to kill a few hours while in port, but well worth it. The owner picks you up, and during the 15 minute ride gives you a lot of insightful information about the island, its rules and why it has remained so quaint. The Blokarts are pretty easy to drive, fun and as you learn, they got pretty fast. It was a blast for all of us!”
