Feb 7, 2010, Cabarete dominican republic kitesurfing
Cabarete dominican republic kitesurfing. To get to Kitebeach from central Cabarete, you can either stroll along the beach to reach it just around the corner past Bozo Beach and Punta Goleta (approximately 20 minutes walk) or take one of the Motorcycle-Taxis (locally called moto-conchos, the charge is 10 Pesos). You'll see the kites in the sky by then anyway. To get to the other places to kitesurf you are best off asking the locals once you are here in Cabarete.

Feb 7, 2010, Cabarete Kiteboarding School
Cabarete Kiteboarding School. I discovered the joy of kiteboarding in 1999 while living in New Zealand, in the Bay of Islands. During a visit from my mother, (Jordonna) I suggested we buy one another a coveted greenstone carved necklace. It is the tradition of New Zealandís native people, the Maoris, that these treasures can only be received as a gift from a loved one, they cannot be bought for oneself.

Feb 7, 2010, susi mai meets tpk in cabarete
susi mai meets tpk in cabarete. Since I started kitesurfing, Cabrinha has been a big part of my riding adventure.
And by saying Cabrinha, I don't just mean the equipment itself (which is amazing anyway!) but I also talk about the people behind.The team.And as part of the team Susi was always on the most popular photos and images of Cabrinha. I thought to myself: I gotta meet this girl and spend at least a day to understand - what is she doing beside taking those stunning kitesurfing photos?? She got me curious...
