If your cruise ship is stopping in Bonaire for just one day, don't spend it waiting for crowded buses or following a fixed excursion schedule. Renting your own pickup truck gives you the freedom to explore the island at your own pace.
9:00 AM – Pick up your truck
After leaving the cruise terminal, collect your Ford Ranger only a few steps away from the port. Within minutes, you're hitting the road to discovering Bonaire. See our Cruise Ship Special for what's included.
9:30 AM – 1000 Steps Beach
Start your adventure at one of Bonaire's most famous snorkeling locations. Don't worry, there aren't actually 1,000 steps (it just feels like it, walking up and down the 79 steps). Bring your snorkel gear and enjoy crystal-clear Caribbean waters.
11:00 AM – Salt pans & flamingos
Drive along the southern coastline where you'll find the famous pink salt lakes, wild flamingos and breathtaking ocean views.
12:30 PM – Lunch at Sorobon
Relax with lunch at one of Sorobon's beachfront restaurants while enjoying the shallow turquoise waters. Lunch tips:
- Chicken pita at The Hangout Beach Bar
- Sushi at Sorobon Resort
- Super thin pizza at Sebastian's Beach
2:00 PM – Bachelor's Beach
Take another refreshing swim or simply relax before heading back toward Kralendijk.
3:30 PM – Downtown Kralendijk
Walk through the colorful streets, visit local boutiques and enjoy a coffee by the waterfront.
Return to your ship
After an unforgettable day, simply return your pickup and board your cruise with amazing memories of Bonaire.
