Last year saw us receiving an enthusiastic round of recommendations from numerous yacht crewmembers and guests alike for Enguerrand Espinassou and his kite surfing school. Enguerrand Espinassou is a certified instructor in St. Barth, with international and French diplomas, and one of the first and best French kitesurfers around. With now over 13 years of experience in teaching this exciting sport, he offers private classes for all levels, from 9 years old up, and packages of 3 to 5 sessions accompanying his students with a boat and VHF assistance.
Carib Waterplay is THE place for any windsurfing need. Jean Michel runs his business, ideally located on the beautiful beach of St Jean (next to La Plage restaurant) since 1983. As an excellent windsurfer himself, he keeps updated on all the latest technology and always offers a choice of high tech and brand new equipment for all levels, from beginners boards with a lot of buoyancy… to ‘sinkers’ for advanced clients. St Jean is the perfect spot for all levels, with a protected lagoon and nice waves behind the reef. They offer lessons for any lever and rentals from one hour to long term.
Located close to the beautiful beach in St.Francois - one of the best spots for kitesurfing, windsurfing and surfing on the island - The Sunset Surf Camp is a ‘back-packer’ type hotel, offering 8 rooms set in a tropical garden that can be converted into single, double or triple rooms, each with its own bathroom.
A ‘surf taxi’ runs twice a day to take advanced surfers to extreme spots, and work with the best surf and kite-surfing schools in the area. Other activities that can be organized include scuba diving, golf (with a course close by), hiking, paragliding, tennis, and more…
With its turquoise blue and shallow water lagoons, located close to Marina Bas du Fort, Guadeloupe is a first class destination for kitesurfing. Michelle Baillot is a certified kitesurfing instructor and used to be one of the top 10 female international competitors. She used to teach in Dominican Republic and speaks perfect English and Spanish. She offers individual or group lessons from 3 hour sessions to several days’ packages and for any level. Friendly and flexible, she can even come to pick up her clients to the marina and take them to the best spots on the island.
Not for the faint hearted, but a fabulous adrenalin fueling experience is to ‘free fall’ parachute jump from a plane high above the peninsular of St.Francois with the stunning coloured waters of the lagoon far below! Acting to the highest levels of security this company will also video your 4000 metre free fall experience!

They have been back in the area for several years now and it still amazing to see them swim by right in the harbour.
How many there are is unsure but numbers are growing.
