Bonaire Wins Sustainable Tourism Award

Thursday, May 1, 2008

(May 1, 2008 - DTN) --  Bonaire, the dive and soft adventure destination in the southern Caribbean,  was the recipient of the prestigious Islands Magazine/Caribbean Tourism Organization 2008 Sustainable Tourism Award.

This popular dive mecca was awarded the honor in recognition of its longstanding commitment and leadership role in marine conservation and for its proactive measures in protecting the marine environment. The Sustainable Tourism Award recipient was selected by a panel of judges from Islands Magazine and the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO), who reviewed all of the entries submitted by CTO member countries.

Last year, three of Bonaire’s eco-programs were honored in the Islands Magazine Hot 100 Blue List, and in 1994 the Bonaire National Marine Park won the Islands Magazine Ecotourism Award. Call 800-BONAIREor visit www.tourismbonaire.com.
