Coral Spawning 2017

Synchronized swimming is crucial!
Scientists still don’t know how the adult corals manage to release their gametes exactly at the same time, but this “synchronized swimming” is crucial, because the gametes of most coral species have a shelf life of only a few hours. That huge snowstorm increases the chance of fertilization.

Great news for island hoppers!

Divi has been a nice alternative for some time, but because the airline only flew with Britten-Norman Islanders, which only can contain 8-9 people  and the fact that Divi only flew 5 to 6 times a day (only with daylight), the possibilities were limited.

Review Sebastian’s Restaurant Bonaire

The traffic rules on Bonaire, not very complicated!

For visitors from North America or European countries who are already used to driving on the right side of the road, driving on Bonaire might be very easy, but because the island does not yet have any traffic lights and Bonaire uses a large part of the international road signs, it is not very complicated for guests from other countries to participate in traffic here either. Some of the texts on the plates are in Dutch, so this can sometimes raise questions for non-native speakers.

The wrong island

Sometimes you read stories about those events with travelers that make you think: this can’t be true…

We all know the stories about tourists that booked a five star hotel, arrived at their destination, just to discover that the hotel did not yet exist, but was under construction.
Or lists of bizarre ‘reviews’ of unhappy guests, of which you almost certainly know that they must be myths or urban legends.

Caving with Flow Bonaire
