See, feel and taste the culture of Bonaire, beginning with a panoramic drive north along the scenic coastline. You'll immediately get a feel for Bonaire's flora and landscape, huge candelabra cacti, trees, ocean views and the uninhabited island of Klein Bonaire.
Drive through town and up to the Sabadeco Hills for a stunning view over Klein Bonaire.
Pass various famous dive sites and the historic plantation area of Karpata. This was once a trading center that produced aloe and charcoal.
Enjoy a panoramic view of the fertile Rincon Valley -- the ancestral home to the Arawak Natives who came here from the South American mainland more than a thousand years ago. Today Rincon is still a quiet, tranquil village, but its many traditions are alive and are celebrated with great fanfare and festivities.
Drive through a part of the village and hear about the history, various houses, the church and the government building.
Pause at an authentic local house, relax under a shady tree in the garden and sample the locally-produced cactus liqueur.
You'll encounter the seven-layer rocks and perhaps even see some wandering wild donkeys as your drive continues.
The final stop is at the Terramar Museum -- a historical and archaeological museum. Journey through 7,000 years of Caribbean history with spectacular exhibits, fascinating artifacts, 3D reconstructions and interactive experiences.
Notes:
There are some stairs inside the museum and no elevator. Wear comfortable walking shoes.
