I was wondering about the wind in Bonaire. Is it too much to enjoy a week vacation? Is it always windy?

Frank, welcome to BT. There is always some wind, but there are a lot of places where you can stay out of the wind as well. The east coast has more wind then the west coast.

welcome Frank.. the wind also keeps you cool.... and you have to be careful because as we say Bonaire is 3 feet from the sun.:)

Thank you, Martin. Is it too windy to go running?

It's not too windy, but too warm (IMHO). Remember Bonaire is close to the equator.

For the current weather, click here, for the history, click here.

I did see people running, but mostly early in the morning and late in the afternoon.

80 degrees is okay, is it really too windy or really too warm?

That's up to you... I cannot tell if you will find 80 degrees too warm or too cold. Check out the second link I posted, it states on the year average that the wind is between 5 and 10 kilometers an hour (I'm sure if you look at it, it will tell the speed in miles an hour).
