The locals, people of Bonaire

The Antillean culture is a result of many mixtures of different rases from all over the world and all with their own traditions. The African, Spanish, Latin and Dutch influence are obvious. Have a closer look at their language, music, dance and krioyo kitchen.

Almost every visitor of Bonaire is pleased by the kindness of the Bonairean people. Mainly they are very relaxed and helpful. When talking to them you will find out that they are friendly people who are smiling a lot.

Don't be afraid to get a drink or some food in a local snack. When greeting "bon dia or bon nochi" you will notice how pleased they are that you are trying to say someting in their language.
