I did a Yahoo serch……Location: 30 miles (48 km) from Curacao; 50 miles (80 km) north of Venezuela and 86 miles (129 km) east of Aruba, outside of the Caribbean hurricane belt. Over the last two decades, Bonaire has consistently ranked as the finest snorkeling and scuba diving destination in the Caribbean. A major reason for this prominence is the island’s diligent stewardship of its marine resources — all of the waters off Bonaire’s coast have been legally protected since 1979, and it shows. |

Hi!Bonaire is part of the Leeward Netherlands Antilles…. also known as the ABC islands: Aruba, Bonaire & Curacao. The official language of the Netherlands Antilles is Dutch, although English and Spanish are also spoken. Papiamento is a mixture of Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese.Definitely on my short list!
