Naturist Bonaire

Posted by Jill Bowen on Fri 25th January 2008 at 07:01 PM, Filed in Mexico and CarribeanNaturism

The beautiful unspoilt Caribbean Island of Bonaire is 50 miles north of Venezuela, and is part of the Netherlands Antilles. The wonderful year round climate ensures that its perfect for naturist holidays – with the added bonus of being one of the rare places in the Caribbean that is outside the hurricane belt. The constant trade winds, strongest from December to August moderate the heat.  The water temperature is 27 degrees, and 32 degrees air temperature year round makes it perfect for swimming – and obtaining an all over suntan. It’s also a divers paradise being surrounded by coral reefs with over 350 species of fish making diving breathtaking.  Local laws strictly enforce the prohibition of anchoring, spearing fish and touching the coral – ensuring this colourful underwater world is protected for future generations.

The small family naturist resort of Sorobon beach is located in the south east corner of Bonaire with it’s own spotless 200 yard section of sandy beach, protected by the coral reef half a mile out.  Sun loungers are under shelters made from Palm trees branches providing welcome shade from the suns intense rays.  The Sorobon beach resort is also slightly eco-friendly as solar-panels are used to heat the bathing water, which in turn is re-cycled and used to water the grounds.

Facilities:

  • 30 well appointed chalets – most are 1 bedroom, one 2 bedroom with 2 baths, and one 3 bedroom house. No chalet is more than 50 yards from the sea! All of the chalets have a fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning, queen size bed, and bathroom, in-room safe and bed/settee and armchairs. Maid service and fresh towels for the bathroom is supplied 6 days a week, beach towels are also included.

  • The Sugarbird Restaurant was refitted in 2007 and offers buffet breakfasts – including eggs, smoked salmon, fresh fruit, yoghurt and cereals. An excellent lunch and dinner menu is on offer – unless you want to go into town for meals, or cook for yourself in the chalet.
  • A boules court and snorkel equipment (to hire) is available, plus an extensive library.
  • Free Kayaks on the beach
  • A shop selling a small selection of souvenirs is on site; the shop also has a selection of beach and food items.
  • There is an Internet room available – but all chalets now have Wi-Fi access.
