I'm planning to take a break from reality from July to September this year.
I'd like to find a great kiting spot somewhere in the world where I could live for three months, kite, take some language classes and recharge.
Specifically I'm looking for a few things
- Great flat water spot for me to build my skills
- Consistent wind in the period July-Sep
- Hopefully somewhere that speaks Spanish and where I could take some language classes
- Reasonably cheap (so probably a developing nation)
- Wouldn't mind some nearby surf as well :)
I'm imagining there must be a perfect spot somewhere in Latin/South America. I thought I'd call on the collective wisdom of the Seabreeze crew for some advice.
Thanks in advance (ps I haven't been able to find any similar threads but if this question has been done somewhere else please just refer me through)
Everywhere in the N hemisphere that's known for windsurfing/kiting will be good that time of year. Spanish-speaking places...
Start at Tarifa or Cabarete. If they're too crowded/developed for your taste you can easily move on.![]()
Cabarete has warmer water and a nearby surf break. If you stay at Ali's surf camp there's a language school across the road. There are heaps of holiday homes you can rent, since the Dominican Republic permits foreigners to own real estate.
