Be Welcome

Donkey Sanctuary Bonaire is committed to providing a protected life for all donkeys on Bonaire. Information is also given about the living environment of donkeys to the islanders, at schools and to tourists. Donkey Sanctuary Bonaire currently houses more than 700 donkeys. They are provided with food, drinking water and medical care and have a lot of space and freedom.

You are very welcome to visit Donkey Sanctuary Bonaire yourself. We would like to receive you in our shop to explain our activities.

You can also buy nice souvenirs here, the proceeds of which will of course go entirely to the donkeys. Then you can drive your own car among the hundreds of donkeys in our large park. The animals will be happy to come up to you and stick their snouts through the car window, hoping you brought them a treat.
