Kitesurfing with Big Air Kite School
Cabarete is one of the best kiteboarding destinations in the world for learning and professional riding. 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 kiters 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 kiting 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 school again to our first spot right beside the Hotel Viva 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 Best and Starkites. Beside this we have informations at inscription offices at:
