Great article, but it point to the main problem Bonaire is facing, the sewage issue. Hopefully they will get something done about it someday soon. Does anyone have a status report on the waste treatment facility due to be built?

When you read all of the Caribbean entries and see the "downfall" of a lot of them it seems to be connected to too many cruise liners taking over the island. Shame....cb

Read how Anguilla rated and their comments on cruise ships.

I'd be curious to hear TCB's response to the statement that "Bonaire is poised to become over developed." The consistent argument from the TCB is that they do not intend to become another Cozumel or Grand Cayman when it comes to cruise ships. I assume this is independent source who does not have an agenda, so how does the TCB and the government continue to defend its position in the face of this report? (I've had several email responses from the TCB claiming they do not intend to induce mass tourism.)

If the cruise ships get in its just a matter of time , they are a curse of the environment . Try to stop them before they get their piers in . The dive community is probably more beneficial to locals than cruise corporations will ever be .Lloyd

We were in Cozumel this past Spring, and had the misfortune to be in town on a day with two huge cruise ships. It was awful. A real nightmare.
