Best locations for kitesurfing
Silver Rock Beach
Barbados is a small island that stretches for 21 mi (34 km) in length and 14 mi (23 km) in width and boasts several ideal locations for kitesurfing. Silver Rock Beach is one of them. It is located in southeastern Barbados, and best fits kitesurfing beginners due to its small waves.
Long Bay Beach
Long Bay Beach is another kitesurfing destination in Barbados. This secluded beach also sits in the southeastern part of the island and will meet the needs of both beginners and professional kitesurfers.
Maxwell Beach
Finally, you can also opt for Maxwell Beach, situated in the south of the island. Onshore wind direction is typical for this beach, meaning you can catch a ride up the wind more quickly compared to other locations.
