In this tour you will get to explore 10 unique points of interest in Rincon Village.
Rincon village is the oldest village on Bonaire and is rich in history. It is also the oldest continual community within the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba. Originally settled by the Spanish in the early 1500s, Rincon was strategically nestled within a valley to ward off impending danger from pirates and other threats. During 17th century, slaves were brought to Bonaire and worked tending crops and the salt pans until 1863.
Living in Rincon, the slave men would weekly walk a 7-hour journey south for work and then return on weekends to gather supplies at Mangazina di Rei (King’s storehouse) and visit their families. You will stop at the Cadushy distillery, where you will be able to taste the local cactus liquor made in Bonaire for free.
After visiting Cadushy you will be stopping at a local restaurant called Posada. There you can try native island food and have a traditional local taste.
