Here are Simon's top reasons and tips for travel to Margarita:

Hotel Atti
A fabulous place to stay and the staff have been there for many years and are always very welcoming. Perched 200m’s above the beach the morning and sun-downer views are stunning and very special! The Hotel Atti has a lovely pool and the best steaks in town!

El Yaque
- warm and windy conditions in winter
- uncrowded
- great social, fabulous food and apres windsurfing
- adventure trip to idyllic Coche Island.
- perfect hotel base with stunning seaviews for sundowners and pool side drinks!

Travel Details

Transfer: Only 10 minutes to El Yaque!

What to take:
- Shorts/rash vest weather most of the time, but take a 3mm shortie summer suit, surf shoes and very strong sun block.

Course details
Margarita has a slant towards more experienced intermediates covering shorter board sailing in planing winds, covering everything from waterstarts, stance control, gybing and we’ll encourage you to try some simple
Feasible Freestyle to take you to the next level -
be that a sail 360 or a duck gybe etc. The coaching is broken down into specific SB ‘Windwise topics to focus on YOUR particular requirements. Using rewarding effective Windwise Skills Training, special demos, digital video and plenty of on water coaching, you’ll get all the encouragement and assistance you need to insure you improve.

Typical Course Level: Essentials to Advanced
Provided you can use a harness and plane, you will be able to join the group. The levels and abilities will then be split into smaller groups, so that specific topics can be covered to suit
your requirements. If you have any concern about your level
for the week, please get in contact and we’d be only too
pleased to help.

Location Details
We’ve been to Margarita for over either years and it’s become a real favourite. Easy launching, plentiful, consistent, cross-shore left to right winds and warm water. It can get crowded, but we often take clients to ‘The Secret Garden’ which offers fabulous flat water and a great blast back to the bay. The beach scene is vibrant with chilled beach bars, slow service and that laid back feel. Rum is cheaper than Coca Cola and we’ll take you to some truly fabulous places to eat. 

The Wind
In March your chances of wind are pretty much as good as it gets at that time of year anywhere in the world. Hence such a popular winter location. When the trades are in you’d expect to be on sail between 4.5-5.5m. Starting lighter in the morning and really building up by lunch time. If your body can handle it, you often get a good six-eight hours of solid wind a day. Plus you’ll see some of the world’s best freestylers making new moves.

See You There!
