This will be really short. Not because we didn't have a good time (because we did). I just want to thank some people that helped us have a good time. Most of all, Irene at Belmar. Thanks for all your help in getting us there and for the place to stay that was perfect for us. I am an avid snorkerler and my husband is not. He likes to snorkel but is not addicted as I am. Staying at the Belmar was perfect. He could either sit on the dock and watch me (if he could see me) or sit on the patio. I saw so much right at the Belmar. Some of which I didn't have my camera and wish I had. My favorite was the squid. Saw them on two different days but didn't have my camera both times. I learned my lesson. Irene helped us get from Aruba to Bonaire and I thank her for that. We had FF miles to Aruba and she hooked us up with a travel agency to get us to Bonaire. EVERYTHING worked out perfect. Timing couldn't have been better. We rented from AB and had a ball. Did the park and other snorkeling places. Favorite was 1000 steps. Beautiful view from top of stairs. Never did get our fresh fish from the place next to Richards. It never came in I guess. Thanks also to Rene on the Windwood. Had a wonderful time. Thanks for the turtle picture. It came out great. We need to get back to Bonaire to see all the things we didn't see. We found the people to be very helpful and kind. We never had any problems with stealing or anything like that. Hi to Jessie and ???. Had a great time snorkeling with you guys.

Hope to see you next year and wouldn't go anywhere else but the Belmar. Best vacation we have ever had and that includes Hawaii. St. Lucia eat your heart out. No comparison.

Joyce & Jon McGuire

Thanks for sharing your trip with us. Sounds like you and Jon had a great vacation. Was this your first trip to Bonaire?

I love the Bel-Mar too! The view there is awesome.
Glad you had a great time! I hope you try scuba diving. There are many wonderful open water instructors on the island.
