capriccio Posted March 26, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Independent excursions were allowed on Bonaire last week (we were on one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprocket Posted March 26, 2022 #4 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Disembarked from the Enchanted on March 20th we were given information during the cruise as to which ports required either a ship or port authorized tour. Things are evolving so your dates may be different but this is what I have. Also this is assuming there are no Covid cases on your ship. St Thomas No restriction St Kitts No restriction Dominica No independent tours Princess or Port Authorized St Lucia No independent tours Princess or Port Authorized Grenada Princess and Independent tours allowed Barbados No independent tours Princess or Port Authorized Aruba We did not stop there Bonaire Princess and Independent tours allowed In short the only 3 ports for us that did not allow independent excursions were: Dominica St Lucia Barbados And only one port (sorry can't remember which one) required everyone to show their vaccine cards.

I hope it was a snorkel / scuba ? Bonaire was my wife's first open water snorkel after learning how to in our pool ... it was great, but she didn't get to see a sea turtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonaire was my wife's first open water snorkel after learning how to in our pool ... it was great, but she didn't get to see a sea turtle Yes! it was our second excursion (my 2 DBs and SILs first) with Woodwind. Great as always! We saw a small green sea turtle. In 2016 we saw a number of large green turtles at the second snorkel spot but this time we went to a different spot because the wind was picking up significantly and the second spot was more exposed. Glad we went there though; we got to see a multi-year experiment on growing endangered elkhorn and staghorn coral in tree nurseries. https://www.reefrenewalbonaire.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/RRFB-2018-Annual-Report.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
