In July 2024, Tourism Corporation Bonaire (TCB) recognized three visitors from the United States as Bonaire Ambassadors. The visitors were Tamara Thiede, who has been visiting Bonaire for 10 years, and also Dennis Metcalf and Shea Kim, who have been visiting our island for the past 15 consecutive years.
