Feature Story IslandLife Xp Bonaire
The culinary offerings on the island have greatly increased in the last several years, making it more exciting to go out and enjoy good food. Lunch time is a bit different because we have limited time due to work or because we have already planned our next dive or another activity. Here are some of our lunchtime tips.
Doner Station/Fresh Market
Doner station located in HATO and the Fresh Market located on Kaya Industria, close to the supermarkets, offer very affordable meals.
