Non Kiting Activities

Surfing

Encuentro Beach, 5 km downwind of Cabarete Bay, is one of the Dominican Republic’s premier surfing beaches. Home to the Master of the Ocean wave-sports triathlon, this beach is great for both beginners and expert surfers. Transportation, lessons and board rental are available from our surf school partner, just ask the LEK team for more details.  Surfing is a great way to start the day, and an excellent compliment to your kiteboarding!

 

Wakeboarding

This is the perfect cross-training for kiteboarding, and the Yasica River 10 km upwind of Cabarete Bay is one of the best places in the world for wakeboarding. Water like glass: for those wakeboarders out there it is a real treat! And if you are learning how to water-start with your kiteboard, training with wakeboarding is the ideal activity get you ready for this exciting moment in your kiteboarding career.

 

Windsurfing

Cabarete is a town built for windsurfing, and no wonder why, the conditions are excellent! Advanced sailors will love playing on the waves in the reef and the calm waters in the heart of Cabarete are an excellent location to give this sport a try on a light wind morning. Their are a few great schools and all have lessons and rentals.  We recommend checking them all out when you arrive and deciding which one to train with when you are here.

 

Ocean Kayaking and Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Check out the reef on a calm morning or play in the waves. Kayaking is a great way to explore the coastline and hang out with the local sea turtles and birds. At LEK we have SUP boards for rent.

 

 

Horseback Riding

On the beach or in the National Park, the horseback riding in and around Cabarete is pretty awesome!

 

 

Canyoning

Excitement and adventure! Rappel down waterfalls, plunge into fresh water pools, whack through the bush, this is a perfect trip for the wild at heart. It’s a really good work out, and the best news is that you will be back in Cabarete in the afternoon, with plenty of time left in the day for kitesurfing.
