As a Bonaire resident from USA, thanks to Kiteboarding Bonaire, living the dream on Bonaire means more than just diving......Thanks to my amazing (and patient) instructor (Christiaan), my husbands amazing instructor (Ryan), and Ossie and the rest of the Kiteboarding Bonaire team!

My husband and I have lived on Bonaire for 1.5 years, and always drove by the kite beach and said....wouldn't that be fun?? But.....like so many people, we put it off and put it off. Then the island shut down (Covid) and we figured...now is the time! Hindsight: I wish we would have done this sooner!!

One of the reasons that we selected Kiteboarding Bonaire is because I am significantly hearing impaired (can't hear much without hearing aids), and they have waterproof headsets, which allows for good communication during the lesson. What a game changer! Without this, I do not think I would have been able to successfully get to independent riding. But, today, I became an independent rider, and so did my husband!
Total lessons: 8 each
Total hours: 16
Cost: Worth every dollar!!
Value: Enjoyment that will last a lifetime!

Plus, we made more friends on the island!
We look forward to continuing to improve our skills in the weeks, months and years ahead.

If you are considering lessons, you could not find a more professional, patient, caring.....AND FUN place to learn!
