Tonky and Taty run The Frans Paradise partly out of a painted container located near the event site on Lac Bay, Sorobon Beach. To find them drive or walk all the way towards the end and look for their little shop along the beach as you approach the event site, not far from the fishing boats. All four windsurf shops on Bonaire are located on the same stretch of Beach at Sorobon. Make sure to follow the road all the way to the fisherman’s pier and you won’t miss The Frans Paradise.
