The
day we chose to sail the short distance from Bonaire to Curacao was
the wettest day we've known since Trinidad. But it's a short hop.
We had the cockpit enclosed and stayed dry while Jackster had a long
and cleansing freshwater shower. |

First
nice surprise as we came in to the well protected Spanish Water was
to find the anchorages were empty; lots of room to swing although the
wind seems always to come from the NE, but in Spanish Water the seas
are flat.
Checking
in in Willemstad is super easy, especially when you can pre-clear
online using Sailclear.com.
The
Old Dutch colony island is larger and more commercial than Bonaire.
The local architecture reflects the colourful Caribbean and South
American influences.
