Windguru has been predicting the stellar winds that have been pounding the windsurf scene in Bonaire. Next week looks sick. Come on down..AA has cheap air to Curacao and I can then book your puddle jumper. I have super last minute deals.
There’s no wind on the East coast of the US so hit the beaches of Bonaire next week.
Why do I love Bonaire? I moved there for the windsurfing scene. The expansive tranquil bay is my zen spot. I am one with nature on the sea. With my board and the wind, I can fly across the top of the water like a water nymph. I feel the breeze in my face and the warm Caribbean sun on my face..often I am alone for a dawn patrol sail in the summer months….it’s my bliss…this is one reason I love Bonaire!
