    We were on a cruise & stopped in Bonaire for the day. I had read the reviews about Palm Boats and so we decided this would be an amazing thing to do. We had the best time! By far this was the best thing we did during our entire trip! The boat was easy to drive & came supplied with a cooler of ice. We had brought our own drinks so that was perfect. The best parts were being able to go where you wanted, when you wanted and spend as much time at each location as you wanted. We just went around to different sites and hooked up to a bouy to snorkel and swim. It was the best day ever! So glad we did this and would definitely recommend doing it for anyone thinking about it!

  • Rough weather and still had a lot of fun

    We had a fantastic day on the water in Bonaire. The five of us enjoyed challenging sailing weather. It was windy and we were warned about that, we were allowed to rebook. But the rough weather was no problem for us. Sailing fast we got soaking wet, but if there was a calmer sail, it was fine to do. The explanation of the boat (by Daniel and a new colleague) was clear and friendly which made us feel at ease. It is a super fun experience that we recommend to everyone.

  • Very nice with small downer

    It's really nice and the people are very nice. The explanation can and should be a bit better. Around small bonaire it is very shallow and the chance of hitting something is more than high. It is indicated that you must sail outside the buoys but they are very limited. In short, you are going to get damage to your screw and you are going to pay for it..

  • Fantastic

    Fantastic Experience – Highly Recommended! My wife and I booked this boat rental excursion in Bonaire through PalBoats, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! It’s only about a 7–10 minute taxi ride from the cruise ship port, making it super convenient. Daniel was amazing — he gave us clear instructions and great safety guidance, making us feel totally comfortable operating the boat on our own. We were the captains of our own adventure for four hours, exploring the island’s beautiful waters at our own pace. The freedom to control our own route and enjoy the scenery was just perfect. This was such a fun and memorable experience — we’d absolutely do it again!
