The first thing you'll notice when you walk, drive or cycle through this charming little town on the western side of the island is that everybody greets you. This local community spirit might have something to do with the fact that it's the oldest settlement on Bonaire and the cradle of the island's cultural heritage. This 16th-century village also possesses great natural treasures and hosts countless festivals and activities. Nearly all of Bonaire's architectural styles are evident here and if you want to know more about the town you can join a guided tour every Friday (15:00, $5) or walk the Historical Walking Tour by yourself. This informative booklet is on sale at the Cadushy Distillery for $5. The tour begins at the Bonaire Heritage Centre (The Cadushy Distillery), which is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10:00. Reservations are required for the guided tour: tel. (+599) 786 87 69 or send an email to info@bonaireheritage.com.
