EnglishWhat Extra Bonaire Offers Beyond Written Articles
Updated
Extra Bonaire (extraboneiru.com) is a Boneriano-language news site, and beyond standard written news stories it offers a video news intro, embedded media, social media channels, a search function, and user account access. The site's own navigation and page content confirm these formats; the sections below explain what each one does and how a reader would use it.
Written news organized by section
The core of the site is text reporting, but it is structured by topic rather than presented as one feed. The navigation lists these sections:
- Lokal — local Bonaire news
- Editorial — opinion and commentary
- Kultura — culture
- Deporte — sports
- Farándula — entertainment and celebrity coverage
- Islanan — regional news, with sub-areas for Aruba, Kòrsou, Statia/Saba/SXM, and Hulanda (the Netherlands)
- Internashonal — international news
A reader who wants only local reporting can go straight to Lokal; someone following regional Dutch Caribbean affairs can use the Islanan subsections. The homepage also surfaces a "ULTIMO RELATONAN" (latest stories) block, so the newest items are visible without choosing a section.
Video and embedded media
The site includes a video element labeled "Extra Bonaire News Intro" with a runtime of 00:06, presented under a "WATCH NOW" label. This is a short branded intro clip rather than a full video newscast. It functions as a media layer on top of the text site — useful if you want to see the outlet's visual identity or check whether video content accompanies a story, but it is not a substitute for the written reporting.
Social media channels
The site links out to four platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. The page also displays follower counts for these channels (for example, 112 followers on one linked account and 9 on another). For a reader, these links are the way to follow updates between site visits or to see posts that may not appear as full articles. The YouTube link is the most relevant if you are looking for video beyond the short intro clip.
Search and user accounts
Two functional tools sit alongside the content:
- Search — a search field is available on the page, letting you look for a topic or name instead of browsing sections.
- Sign in / Join — the site offers account login (username and password) and a registration path, plus a password-recovery flow by email. Logged-in users are addressed as "Abona" (subscriber) in the navigation, which points to a subscriber relationship with the outlet.
Print edition and subscription entry points
The navigation includes "Edishon Di Imprenta" (print edition) and "Abona" (subscribe), alongside a "Pa Kontakto" (contact) link. These are the entry points for readers who want the printed product or a subscription rather than free web browsing. The page evidence shows the links exist but does not state prices, delivery terms, or whether login is required to read articles — so treat those details as something to confirm through the Abona or Kontakto pages directly.
