KITE AND SURF SPOTS

CLIFTON – UNION ISLAND

Our JT Pro Center kiteschool is located on the main beach of Union Island.

The spot is a lagoon of amazing colours with flat water, protected by a reef where nice waves breaks for experienced kiters. To kite on your own on this spot you need to be a confident rider/ go upwind consistently. This is not a good spot for beginners unless they use our rescue services/boat.

The beach is situated only a couple of hundred meters from the rooms of the Anchorage Yacht Club, have a look at our accommodation page. If you are staying on Palm Island, we can pick you up every day and bring you to the kite spot.

If the wind is low, the little airport wave breaking just in front of the club is perfect for surfing or using our SUP boards, but be careful with the shallow reef.

FRIGATE – UNION ISLAND

Frigate is a flatwater spot located in Ashton, the other village on Union Island. The wind is blowing offshore over a walkway, created when the construction of a Marina started. The construction is now abandoned, but it created an amazing playground for kiters.

The spot is easiest accessed by boat, and a boat is needed for safety since the wind is offshore and the next spot is South America…

It takes only 10 minutes by boat to go to Frigate.

BIG SAND – UNION ISLAND

Big sand is the best spot to kite in the waves on Union Island.

A wide beach of white sand, with blue waves of varying size depending on the swell.

The wind is sideshore and the waves are easy. On no wind days Big Sand is a good spot to learn surfing. Ask us about surf lessons/board rental. This spot works best on North East winds.

MAYREAU

Mayreau is a neighbouring island located just a short boat ride from Union Island.

The spot is called Salt Whistle Bay and is a favored anchor spot among sailors visiting The Grenadines. A thin sand spit is separating the bay where the boats anchors from the kite spot. This makes it an excellent spot to bring non kiting friends and partners; they can relax in the calm bay protected from the wind, while you kite on the other side, just 10 meters away.

The bay where we kite is protected by a reef, and has waves on the outside, and small kickers to play with on the inside. Sometimes when there are fewer sailboats, experienced riders can also ride in Salt Whistle Bay on the flatwater section.

The JT Pro Center offers day tours to Mayreau.

THE TOBAGO CAYS

is a neighbouring island located just a short boat ride from Union Island.

The Tobago Cays experience is obligatory when visiting the Grenadines. Here you are guaranteed to see big leatherback turtles when snorkeling, in addition to a rich sea life, beautiful fish of all colours and sizes, and majestic rays floating by.

To kitesurf in the Tobago Cays is an amazing experience: it is a beautiful, huge lagoon of the clearest shades of blue.

A great way to go back to Union is to go downwind by your kite (only with a boat following you of course).

Remember: Kiteboarding in the Cays is restricted, and it is important to respect the launch zones and rules. The rangers are there every day, making sure the rules are followed.

MORPIONNothing is quite like Morpion. A small island of sand in the middle of the sea, surrounded by protective reef.

A lonely umbrella provides the only shadow on Morpion. The spot isn’t the best, the shallow reefs can be pretty dangerous, but everyone must see this sandy island once in their life.

It is a great place to start a downwinder to Frigate.

PALM ISLAND

Kite like a millionaire on Palm Island!
This private island has some of the best wave spots of the Grenadines on the reef surrounding it. The launching can be tricky and the lagoon is a little choppy for freestyle.

The best way is to launch from Union Island while our boat follow you and assist you while you ride the waves around Palm Island.
