Kitesurfing with Big Air Kite School
Cabarete is one of the best kiteboarding destinations in the world for learning
and professional kiteboarding. Beginners like the security of the spots at Bozo
Beach and Kite Beach with long and big beach areas and the constant blowing
trade winds at almost 300 days per year. The advanced kitesurfers are appreciating
the strong and constant winds, too and find perfect conditions for freestyling
or wave riding in the fantastic Cabarete reef break. Best months for kite
surfing are from May to September with 70 - 90 % strong wind between 15 and
30 knots and from January to April with less wind (50 - 70%), but bigger waves.
But also the rest of the year is offering acceptable conditions for learning
and kiteboarding for fun with 50 % good wind. For the whole overview check the wind & wave statistics at our web page.
Since December 2004 we have our own kitesurfing school and in summer 2007
we moved the Kiteboarding school again to our first spot right beside the Hotel Viva Wyndham Tangerine .
Here is one of the best spots for kiteboarding and teaching at Cabarete with
huge and quiet beach area and constant side onshore winds from the right,
where we can offer the best service for our clients with kites and boards
from Ocean Rodeo and Core Kiteboarding.
Beside this we have informations at inscription offices at:
Kahuna Sports Bar and Restaurant
and Fun Tours (german managed Tour operator, right across the street from Supermarket Albertico)
