Best time to visit Bonaire:

December to April (Dry Season/High Season): This is the peak tourist season and considered the best time to visit Bonaire. The weather is dry and pleasant, with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to the mid-80s Fahrenheit (24-30°C). The seas are calm, making it perfect for snorkeling, scuba diving, and other water activities. Keep in mind that prices may be higher during this period, and accommodations can fill up quickly.

May to November (Rainy Season/Low Season): The rainy season in Bonaire brings slightly warmer temperatures and increased humidity. While it's called the rainy season, Bonaire still experiences relatively little rainfall compared to other Caribbean destinations. This period offers lower prices on accommodations and fewer crowds. It's a great time for budget travelers and those looking for a quieter experience.

June to November (Hurricane Season): Bonaire is located outside the hurricane belt, so it's less prone to hurricanes. However, it's possible to experience indirect effects such as increased humidity and occasional rain during the peak hurricane months of August and September. Travelers should keep an eye on weather updates during this period.
