We've booked with the Mangrove Center about ten times over the past few years for our visiting student groups. The trip has always been a wonderful highlight of our time on Bonaire, and we will continue to book groups there. The people who oversee the center truly care about both the local ecosystem and their guests' experience.
A fantastic canoe tour through Bonaire's mangroves. Excellent guidance and explanations about the history, development, and importance of the mangroves to Bonaire's overall ecosystem.
We went kayaking and snorkeling through the mangroves on Bonaire for the first time. A fantastic experience! It was great to get information about the underwater world here and the importance of the mangroves! Thanks!
This is my second time on this tour and it's still fascinating! Excellent kayaking, guidance, and helpful explanations about Bonaire's mangroves and nature. First kayaking, then snorkeling through the nursery, there and back! The fish, waiting for prey, are beautiful.
I would 100% recommend this activity while on the island. The guide was patient, informative, and funny. The views and experience were excellent.
