That’s awesome Charlie! Eating lionfish is definitely a great way to help!

Yes, lionfish!

Lionfish are not indigenous to the Caribbean, and since they have no natural predators there they now exist in MASSIVE numbers and are killing off other varieties of fish with their venomous spines. Many fishermen are now making money specifically going after them, and many restaurants around the Caribbean are learning to cook them in an effort to organically fix the problem. I’ve heard they’re delicious!

I am visiting Bonaire in March (among other Caribbean locations; going on a cruise!) I will do my best to eat my share of lionfish, and I encourage everyone else to do the same!

That’s lovely to hear, Ashton. Sounds like you have been bit by the travel bug! Hope you’ll continue to join us here in Wanderland!

Reading this blog only makes me want to do it more when i’m older. Especially after being introduced places like Bonaire (thanks to you). Would i ever visit Bonaire or a place like it? 100% yes. Everytime i see photos like these makes me concerntrate on the beauty of the sunsets, food, views and all other things that i could probabaly google search. But i think the beauty of travelling is not seeing these places through a screen that makes me only imagine the places and surroundings in my head. The beauty of being able to travel is that it lets you see and explore the depths of these places with your own eyes. And thanks to your blog it’s made a dream of mine become more of a goal that i know i will one day achieve.

Hey Alex! I’ve made many references to the unlimited tank rental service available in Bonaire in my coverage. And yes, apartments are a great alternative to resorts in most parts of the world — I linked to one of my favorites villas (as well as a boutique hotel) to show different accommodation options available in Bonaire. It’s a great island no matter where you stay!

I love Bonaire for the freedom it gives when it comes to diving. If I am not mistaken, I haven’t seen in your post about the diving vacation formula : pickup rental – flat rental – unlimited tank and weight supply 24/24. For a “backpacker” style traveller, it is quite convenient and most of the flats to rent can be found in the south of Kralendijt far away from the well organised resorts. One last little thing if I may, Carlos Coste, one of the worldwide references in freediving has a facility there, Deep sea freediving school. Merci de tes infos et compliments pour tes voyages!

Indeed, and those are the ones that interest me! I’m itching to check out islands like Saba and Dominica. Hopefully soon!

I agree. I’d never heard of this island either until it popped up on your facebook and in your posts. But that is the case with many Caribbean Islands I think, there are so many small ones I just don’t know.

The diving resort looks positively heavenly though!

Aw, thank you so much Jeanine! You’re too sweet. Glad I could give you a little taste of Bonaire!

This post makes me want to go there as soon as possible and I’m looking forward to your upcoming posts about the island. Also, I’ve been reading your blog for a few weeks now and you’re definitely one of my favourite bloggers! I really like your writing style and your pictures are gorgeous!
