Echt zeilen Op de motor de haven uit, maar voor de rest van de goed verzorgde trip, altijd “ de wind in de zeilen” lekker schuin hangen met een rozeetje in de hand, geserveerd door gastvrouw Linda. Kapitein Patrick vaart je veilig langs de mooie kust van Bonaire, genieten

Excellent experience! We were a group of four lads and booked this experience online whilst on a Caribbean cruise in April, and honestly it was one of the best things we did during the entire two weeks. The boat was spacious, comfortable and very well organised, with a great selection of drinks, snacks and a lovely lunch provided throughout the day. The crew were absolutely exceptional and took us to some incredible snorkelling spots. Swimming with a turtle was genuinely mind-blowing, and seeing the flying fish was something really special. If you’re thinking about booking an experience like this, don’t hesitate to choose this one — you definitely won’t regret it. Thank you so much for such an excellent experience!

Perfect sailing and snorkeling trip! We loved this sailing trip with Patrick and Linda! Patrick is a great captain and Linda is so knowledgeable about the marine life. They both know the waters so well and shared so much Bonaire knowledge with us. They were so friendly and attentive and have everything you need to sail comfortably and snorkel too. We could do whatever itinerary we wanted but we were happy with their expert planning. We moored twice both in excellent spots to see a large variety of fish and a couple turtles too. Linda knew so much about the coral reefs and fish and explained so much during our snorkel adventures. In between moorings, we had a great sail over to Klein Bonaire where we snorkeled a second time. The snacks made by Linda were delicious (the pineapple omg best we've ever had) and she kept them flowing throughout as well as offering us drinks and water. We had such a great time and just love Patrick and Linda and their stories and would do this trip with them again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend!

This is my family’s second time in 2 years sailing with SoloBon, and the experience is world-class. I cannot recommend it enough! We loved the care and friendliness of Patrick and Linda, and I especially loved that they switched our tanks out for us between our first and second dives. I loved the capable way they sailed us around with total confidence. The boat is on gorgeous condition too. The food was excellent and catered to our dietary restrictions. Patrick and Linda are true Bonarians and are very knowledgeable about the island, diving, and wildlife. I can’t wait for the next time we get to go sailing with SoloBon!

Excellent charter day for all ages My family had the best day on the water with Solobon. We all say it was our favorite day of the trip! My elderly parents as well as 2 young boys all enjoyed themselves. We were able to schedule the day exactly as we please. Started with snorkeling, with turtles! Before heading on a cruise and eventually mooring so the boys could jump off the boat. Food, drinks, company, all made the day perfect. If coming from the cruise port it’s an easy walk along the water.

Genuine Sailing Experience! Linda and Patrick were great hosts. They made us feel right at home and seemed really proud of the business that they have built. Snacks were great and unexpected. The best part was that we actually sailed the entire time. Too often we've booked "sailing" excursions and ended up on a catamaran under engine the entire trip. Solobon is a legit SAILING experience. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Solobon for a sailing and snorkeling outing. Patrick & Linda know the waters and dive spots! If you’ve never sailed before, this is the place to try it. If you’re a long time sailor, this is the place to sit back and relax. We will be back!

We had the great luck of finding and booking SoloBon Sailing for a half day charter during a stop in Bonaire on a cruise. They were punctual and super friendly. We were able to customize what we wanted to do, and they made sure we had a great time. They took us to two fabulous snorkeling sites and found a pod of about 50 dolphins and allowed us to sail beside them for almost half an hour. They provided great snacks and drinks and made sure that we had a ride waiting for us at the marina to get us back to our ship with plenty of time to spare. I would highly recommend them if you are staying on the island or coming in on a cruise ship. Reliability and quality are what we look are when we travel, and we got both with SoloBon Sailing.
