Español Kiteboarding is very popular sport in Punta Cana but not as popular as in Cabarete – the place to go kitesurfing in the Dominican Republic. On many days you will see dozens kiteboards going up and down the beach but there is a lot of place for everyone and there are no jet skis or too many motorboats that would get in the way.
Kiteboarding in Punta Cana
Conditions:
During the winter months the winds are quite consistent in Punta Cana. The wind usually blows day and night, starting in mid-November through February. For most of they year the place sees the afternoon winds mostly between 13 to 18 knots (not often over 22 knots) for about 4 hours. Typically you can you can rig up right in front of your hotel. There is quite a bit of coral in the water which makes it a bit challenging for beginners. The corral ends after about two thirds of a mile out.
Punta Cana Kiteboarding Lessons
Punta Cana is not a bad place to learn kiteboarding. Until recently you had to look for a private teacher but now there are at least two schools that teach kite surfing. These schools do group classes or private classes. However you can still get a good deal if you go and ask kitesurfers on the beach to teach you.
To become an independent kite boarder you will need a minimum of 3 days and 9 to 12 hours of lessons. This will set you back at US$350 to US$799.
These are the companies that can teach or possibly rent equipment:
- Kite Punta Cana
- Kite Surfing by SeaPro Divers
