What to Expect if You Participate
The swim to Klein Bonaire is quite popular, with an average of 500 people participating in the swim. For those who do not wish to swim back, boats at Klein Bonaire will return you to Eden Beach Resort. Of course, you can always swim back to Bonaire, but it may be a little more difficult. Participants can use fins, masks, or even flotation devices. The Coast Guard, STINAPA, the Woodwind, and a few kayakers will be involved to manage the safety of all participants and offer people a chance to get out of the water if they decide to stop swimming.
Everyone, young and old, is invited to participate and support a good cause!
