Good News Bonaire Travelers, United Airlines will continue service through September this year with their non -stop flight from Houston to Bonaire! The flight will be available starting March 31, 2013. September is the perfect month to visit the island for divers. The coral spawn phenomena occurs and diving is perfect with light winds and flat seas. Now is the time to plan your September getaway. These dates coincide with the US Labor Day Holiday so extend your days off for a perfect week diving on Bonaire . To book your air, contact United direct. Then, contact Caribbean Wind & Sun Vacations for your land package. If you mention Bonaire Bliss, and book 4 divers, one will dive for free (160.00 credit towards the group). Contact ann@bonairecaribbean.com for details.
My friends and I took a boat out to Klein Bonaire last week to snorkel. My two favorite snorkel spots at Klein include Keepsake and Just a Nice Dive, both on the SE side of the island. Just a Nice Dive is a deeper water dive with lovely purple tube and yellow pencil coral. Keepsake is magical. The splendid sea garden is sharply contrasted amongst powder white sand. The site is teeming with fish. To book a guided snorkel trip, rent a boat or learn more about snorkeling in Bonaire, contact Ann Phelan from Caribbean Wind & Sun at ann@bonairecaribbean.com today.

Recently, I hosted a small supper party. I wanted to serve local fish in a creative way. A long time friend, Roland Aarts opened a new catering business, Food for Friends. I had the privilege of being his first customer. Roland prepared a light and sumptuous array of Amuses and one entree. I asked for locally caught Lionfish. Roland did not disappoint with an amazing Lionfish tartare. It was a lovely supper well enjoyed by all.
