5.00The night mangrove trip is a must do whilst in Bonaire! We went on the night before leaving the island, and it was a serene tour of the beautiful mangroves by moonlight, with a few chances to see bioluminescence, stargazing, and we were lucky enough to see shooting stars too. It was an incredibly peaceful experience but also a fun adventure exploring the deep and dense mangroves. A special shout out to Tÿmen, our guide, who was lovely and tailored the trip to our wishes. He was very friendly and informative, and clearly experienced at exploring the mangroves; we felt very safe and had loads of fun!
Night Kayak Tour is one of the nicest tours you can get on the island

Exploring Bonaire in the dark was such a unique experience, peaceful, exciting, and full of surprises. The guide was friendly and very knowledgeable, showing us things we never would’ve noticed on our own. Seeing the island come alive under the stars made the whole evening unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something special and different to do on Bonaire!

5.00We did the night tour and it was really nice. Tijmen did the tour with us and he was awesome! The bioluminescence was so cool!! Surprisingly not that many mosquitoes as you would think, we heard them twice but wasn’t bitten.

5.00A Magical Night Tour Experience! After enjoying the day tour so much, we decided to join the night tour — and it was a completely different experience! Kayaking under a sky full of stars in total silence was simply magical. The only sounds were the gentle splash of our paddles, the calls of night herons, and even an owl flying overhead. We witnessed the mesmerizing bioluminescence — glowing green lights dancing in the water — an unforgettable sight! After the tour, we were welcomed back at the Mangrove Center with a refreshing drink, still soaking in the peacefulness of nature. A truly unique and unforgettable experience! 🌙✨🚣♀️
Beautiful experience, interesting and beautiful stars!
