Kitesurfing Icon Windsurfing Icon


The Sportif windsurfing & kitesurfing centre in Martinique in the Caribbean is located on the beach at the Hotel Carayou, meters from the waters' edge. There is a slight wind shadow at the launch however this is made up for once you get out into the bay and in the prevailing winds, and with warm waters year round it means that you can leave your wetsuit out of your suitcase!


Open Year Round.


Location
The centre is located at Hotel Carayou and is just meteres from the water's edge. There is a narrow launch area which has a slight wind shadow. The kitesurfing area is large and surrounded by greenery/mangroves making it a great location for Beginners. Further out the conditions are usually flat water, with some bump and jump.
