In November 2009, Aaron Sales of Kiteboarding Magazine, Sam Light, the UK # 1 and top watersports photographer, Bill Doster joined our team for 10 days on a memorable adventure over and under the water. What we got was magical. Even though the wind was un cooperative, through sheer persistence and hard work we nailed the cover shot with Sam on it and an 8 page spread in the magazine. Big shout out to Wes, Hope, Jackie and Philip for a strong team effort. Pick up the Kiteboarding magazine Feb/ March Issue.

We have added the ultimate beach escape to our guests this year. Live out your dream of being on a deserted island with your love one. We will drop you off on a deserted beach, leave you to it and pick you up later. For more information see Beach Escape under Private Charters.
Last week a 12 foot long hammerhead shark was seen by Jackie and a couple of her guests while they were snorkeling in only 8 feet of water at French Cay on the ‘Edge of the banks’ snorkel trip.
The Turks and Caicos have a new Spotted Eagle Ray Monitoring Program and it has recently been extended to the island of Providenciales. Jackie Walker of Big Blue Unlimited is coordinating the project. Check out the latest issue of ‘Times of the Islands’ magazine or www.spottedeaglerays.com for more information.
We are extremely excited to bring Kiteboarding Instruction and Safaris to our adventures this year. Our PASA Instructor, Wes, is the island’s most accomplished and experienced rider having been in the sport since day one. With top of the line equipment available (Naish, Cabrinha, F-One, Mystic and Dakine) we will get you on the water riding in no time. Advanced riders need to check out our downwind safaris.
