Default NEW Kiting Operation in BIMINI, Bahamas!


http://biminikiteboarding.com/


NEW to the Western Bahamas and just 50 miles out of Florida and into the Family Islands. Thirty minutes by plane and you are a world away. Blue sky, clear warm water, white carbonate beaches, kite flat water and wave areas, wakeboarding, standup paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, diving or just kicking back and taking in things on island time.





Stay at the Bimini Sands Resort and Marina ( http://www.biminisands.com/ ) on South Bimini, just steps from blue clear water of the Straits of Florida. Kiting pro shop and school on the premises with everything you need to learn or shred off with abandon if experienced.

Fly over by Continental Airlines or Bimini Air International fly direct from Miami Ft Lauderdale. Free Airport Transfers for people taking lessons.


Or cross the Straits of Florida in your boat, stay in the Marina and kite around the island.



Kite or SUP with the Sapona in the background, nice snorkeling there too. It rests just south of the island.

At the moment we are not offering Diving, but we will in the future be offering a No wind alternative for some snorkelling and free diving.

Kiting lessons are based on an hourly rate, mirroring the ASM training operation in Miami, all equipment is included with lessons. For advanced Kiteboarders we are a Cabrinha Demo / Test Centre so testing all of the latest equipment is free of charge. Downwinders are held through the South Bimini Island Chain. Advanced kiters can even circumnavigate the island and see some truly unusual sights from a unique perspective.

Beginner kiters benefit from the waist deep, warm waters and steady breezes that Bimini has to offer. Bimini typically has 4-5 knots more wind than Miami.





No wind options include paddle boarding tours, sunset paddling and full moon events. Including July 4th Fireworks from the paddleboards. Ballistic paddleboards, that will be something to see!

All instruction is typically done on a one to one basis and where necessary there will be a discount for groups of more than one person.


Sharks are optional but interesting!

Snorkel gear is available for rental. We are also working alongside the Shark Lab guys. Katie and Grant to offer Shark tours where you get to feed sharks and possibly swim with them if your brave enough.


The guys paddle into Honeymoon Harbor of Gun Cay just to the south in the Biminis for some excellent kite time in the shallows.

Another world of excellent times on, under and beside the water is a short distance away in the Bahamas. What are you waiting for?
