Bonaire – Hurricane Safe Vacation Destination
Friday, September 19th, 2008
If you are interested in traveling to the Caribbean, you might be worried about some destinations like Cozumel or Jamaica because of such an active hurricane season. No one wants to spend their vacation frightened of active weather systems like Ike or Gustav. However, there is one idyllic island that you count on for great weather and that is the island of Bonaire.
Bonaire is located in the Dutch Caribbean and is situated outside of the hurricane belt. That way, divers and other vacationers can rest easy knowing that they have chosen a vacation destination with year round sunshine, pristine coral formations and a thriving sea life. In fact, many vacationers choose Bonaire for their diving trip, once they realize that Bonaire is outside of the hurricane belt.
Hurricane season officially runs from June through November with Mexico encountering activity between August and October. Travelers interested in Mexico or the Caribbean for diving should do their research to ensure they are visiting a safe destination. Some Caribbean destinations like Bonaire are ideal because hurricanes aren’t seen or felt.
If you are interested in a diving or snorkeling getaway this fall, consider Bonaire. You’ll be safe from hurricanes and you can enjoy the pristine waters surrounding the island. Experience diving like it used to be – unspoiled and untouched!
