Sorobon Beach, Sandy beach in Bonaire, Netherlands.
Sorobon Beach sits on Bonaire's southeast coast, stretching along Lac Bay with fine white sand and shallow, calm water for swimming. The area is protected by coral reefs and features a windsurfing school, beach bar, and equipment rental services.
The beach began as a working fishing community with a pier, but transformed into an international water sports hub from the late 20th century onward. The lagoon's shallow, protected waters gradually attracted windsurfers from around the world.
Local fishermen work from a nearby pier using time-honored methods, sharing the shallow waters with water sports enthusiasts who gather here regularly.
Visitors need to purchase a Nature Fee permit before entering the water, available locally or in advance. The beach has showers, changing facilities, and parking, making it straightforward to prepare and spend the day comfortably.
The protected lagoon with its shallow waters and consistent winds makes this a preferred venue for international windsurfing championships. Many athletes return repeatedly to train under these exceptional natural conditions.
