Setting up your eSIM before you travel
Your device must support eSIM technology and be carrier-unlocked. Most iPhones from XS onward, recent Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models, and many other current smartphones are compatible. Check your manufacturer's specifications if you are unsure, and confirm with your home carrier that the phone is unlocked for use with other providers.
After purchase you receive a QR code by email. Install the eSIM profile before departure by scanning the code in your phone's settings, but leave it turned off until you land. On arrival in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius or Saba, enable the eSIM as your mobile data source and disable data roaming on your primary SIM to avoid charges. The eSIM activates when it first detects the network.
Staying connected across the three islands
Bonaire's network coverage is strongest around Kralendijk and the coastal resort areas, with reliable signal for navigation and booking dive trips or restaurants. Sint Eustatius has good coverage in Oranjestad and along the main roads, though signal thins in the Quill National Park's upper trails. Saba's small size means most of the island, including Windwardside and The Bottom, has workable coverage, but expect weaker signal on remote hiking paths and the coastal cliffs.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an eSIM for Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba cost?
esimbloom Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba eSIM plans start at $12.38, with 11 plans to choose from. You pay once for the plan you pick — no roaming fees and no contract.
Do I need an eSIM for Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba?
Only if you want mobile data without roaming charges. An esimbloom Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba eSIM is installed from a QR code before you fly, activates on your first connection in Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, and is data-only — your home SIM stays in the second slot for calls and SMS, with its data roaming switched off.
Can I use one eSIM across all three islands?
Yes, if you choose a regional or global plan that lists coverage for Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba. A single eSIM will work on any island included in that plan's coverage zone, so you do not need separate profiles for inter-island travel.
Will my eSIM work on the ferry between islands?
Mobile coverage on the open water between islands is intermittent. You will have signal near the ports in Bonaire and Sint Eustatius, but expect little to no data connectivity mid-crossing. Service resumes once you approach the next island.
Do I get a local phone number with the eSIM?
No. esimbloom plans are data-only, so you can use internet-based apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime or Telegram, but you cannot make traditional phone calls or send SMS. Most travellers find app-based communication sufficient for staying in touch.
What happens if I run out of data during my trip?
You can purchase a top-up or a new plan from esimbloom and install the additional QR code on your device. Some phones support multiple eSIM profiles simultaneously, letting you switch between plans without removing the original profile.
