I love sangria and find the best setting to enjoy is at Hang Out Bar. What better spot with stellar views, cooling trade winds and the windsurf show non stop action?

Willem and team are offering Lazy Sangria Sundays the 25th March and 22nd April. What better way to enjoy the day than with a DJ, Willem and his staff and the best sangria on island.

Hang Out Bar is located at windy Lac Bay. Lac Bay is one of the world’s best spots to learn to windsurf and to hone your skills. To book your windsurf holiday contact ann@bonairewindsurfing today.

Thank you Jibe City for not winning the football pool

Zonnig Bonaire — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 19:31:28 +0000

During the World Championship Football 2010, Jibe City organized a football pool. Unfortunately nobody won the Jackpot and at Jibe.

What to do with the money?

Everyone at Jibe decided to give the money to the Animal Shelter Bonaire.

Thanks to everyone at Jibe City for putting money in the football pool and for not winning!

No Wind, What’s a Windsurfer to Do??

Bonaire Bliss — Fri, 21 May 2010 09:15:01 +0000

What the ??

Weather predictions show a wind shut down in the next week or more. My favorite models come from www.windguru.cz

Fortunately I have few windsurf clients heading to the island but for those who have chosen May 22 as your week, what to do? Well if you still want to take a go at windsurfing, meet Caesar Finies, our island’s best light wind freestyler. He works at Jibe City and can connect you with a rig and lesson to learn how to feel the breeze and become light wind proficient.

When the shuts down I head to the sea and snorkel. We have over 50 shore sites one can park and head in. My favorites include Tory’s Reef, south of Invisibles and the wall at Plaza snorkeling all the way south near the airport.

Enjoy!
