Best Beginner Kitesurf Spots in Cayman Islands

Cayman Islands - Rum Point

Rum Point in Grand Cayman offers a fantastic flat water kitesurfing spot, with tons of space in the lagoon which is protected by an outer reef. Between here and Starfish Point you’ll find masses of space to ride but finding a spot to launch and land your kite can be the only challenge as a lot of the local beaches are private. The Cayman Islands are known for being a banking tax haven, but they also offer some great kitesurfing, so the next time you need to open an offshore account for some sweet tax avoidance why not combine it with a sick kitesurfing trip?

Cayman Islands - East End

East End is one of the more popular Kite Spots on Grand Cayman with shallow flat water, making it an ideal spot for beginners and freestyle kitesurfers alike. The reef about 1km offshore keeps the water nice and calm even when the trade wind blows, and the cross onshore wind means you should always find your way back to the beach. There are some small waves breaking over the reef a bit further out so if you are on a strapless kite surfboard then you can also have some fun here.

Grand Cayman is known for its many banks and status as a tax haven for the ultra rich, but the crystal clear water makes it a perfect diving and snorkelling spot, and it’s becoming more and more popular for kitesurfing due to its proximity to the USA and perfect kiteboarding conditions during the winter from November until April.

The kite spot Barkers Beach is a prime destination for kitesurfer communities. Located on the northwest coasts of Cayman Island, this beach is a secluded nook for solo trippers and gypsies. The area is huge, and there's enough shallow water for kiteboarding beginners. Barkers Beach resides in the heart of Barker's National Park, distant from George Town and Seven Mile Beach. This makes the spot a preferable place to escape all the city noise. If you want to spend some time in solace stocked at the magnificent beach-scapes, stroll around lazy, and kitesurf to your heart's content, say hi to Barker's Beach.

During the European winter months, you can enjoy the best kite conditions. Kitesurfing on the Little Cayman Islands is about 80 kilometers northeast of Grand Cayman. In comparison, Little Cayman Island retained its Caribbean originality far away from mass tourism. There is a fairly big beach with plenty of space to launch. The beach is sand but beware of driftwood, especially if self launching. Little Cayman Island is just a short flight from Miami and even closer to Cuba. The kiteboarding happens on Little Cayman in picture perfect, warm, tropical Caribbean blue waters with reliable trade winds making this an ideal spot for easy progression and comfortable cruising.
