You guys need to do more of these.... very well produced with great info. I have started travelling and kiting a lot through Asia. Trying to get good quality information and local knowledge is always a chore. I would watch every one of these you produce. The kite shops are generally self interested and oversell the wind, or they lack experience outside of their own area so don't understand what to tell people.
Just got back from 5 days in Cabarete. This review was spot on!! Thanks!!!! I should have followed video's advice and brought my 19m for the low winds days. I shouldn't complain though - I got 4 days of great riding!!!
Cabarete is an amazing place to visit. This is where my partner and I first learned to kiteboard. Extreme Hotel is another great place to stay right on kite beach! Nice laid back feel with beautiful gardens, kite school, yoga loft, trapeze, sustainable garden/farm that provides the hotel's bar/restaurant with fresh ingredients. I never had a bad meal here or anywhere else around Cabarete. I can't wait to go back! Also really enjoy your videos! Allows my mind to drift off to a tropical paradise.
Very nice addition to your channel. Handy information. Well done. Since you all are stoked on foiling......It would be kinda cool to see a foilability rating on destinations. Should I bring foil or not.? Too windy...too shallow... For example. Progresso: Maybe but lots of shallow water Inclose. Or DR: Yeah it’s deep with fun swell and could enjoy in winter on lighter days. Just a fun foil thought 😀
Yes, there are definitely a few kiteschools at the beachfront in Cabarete that rent advanced gear for experienced riders. 🤙🏽 You can find them listed on various kitesurfing websites or simply search for them on Google. We wish you all the best on your kitesurfing journey!
Great question, my friend. 🤙🏽 We're not up to speed with the current conditions in the DR at the moment. Maybe check in with some kiteboarding travel groups online for some good, up-to-date advice? Good winds! -Aaron
MACkiteboarding, this video inspired me to come to Cabarete for the Spring-Summer of 2021. I'd love to help update some of this information as several restaurant suggestions are now closed, etc. If interested, can someone contact me to help others out in the future?
This is a badass kiteboarding youtube channel for all the destination videos
KaydanAidan Best comment ever. 😀We'll keep the content coming. Cheers - Rygo

Hi. Thanks for the vid!
I'm taking a trip to Cabarete in september. How's the wind and what size of wing do you use?
what hostel are there for kiters (20-30y) in cabarete?

Now, the food is more expensive that north america. More expensive than Canada at least.
Thank you for sharing your experience, my friend. 🤙🏽 Good winds to you. -Aaron

Okay, just returned from Cabarete based on Mackiteboarding recommendation. Did not like it.
There are better places to learn to kite and progress.
Jin Kim like where??
I was thinking of going to Puerto Rico to learn. Have you been there?
