Many might not even have heard of Bonaire, much less Sorobon Beach, but that is exactly what has allowed the place to retain its paradisiacal feel. Part of the Dutch overseas territories, Sorobon Beach on the island of Bonaire, is closer to the Venezuelan border than the Dutch coastline. The beach juts out into the crystal clear water of Lac Bay and is one of the top windsurfing spots on the island. The bay plays host to colorful living corals and the beach is one of the best places from which to begin your underwater journey. Visitors to the beach can look to renting scooters or bicycles to explore the rest of the island at their own pace.
