On the Roques you are used to kite only with us. The fact that we meet other kitesurfers, is rather the exception. But there, a very special pearl is waiting for us: almost forbidden. On the small island, Aves de Barlovento, there is a lonely anchorage with an absolute insider tip kite spot. The trade wind can blow unhindered and without turbulences over the reef. If skipper Michael drives to this place, whether we spend the night, depends on his estimation and above all on the weather.

Further in the direction of the wind, the Dutch island Bonaire with its white sandy beaches and its ex-colonial flair awaits us. We enjoy the goings-on at the kite spot, put our heads under water sometimes, and stay in one of the many restaurants that Bonaire offers.

On the way to the end of our expedition, there is another must-do kite spot. The lee shore’s beach of Little Curacao is free of waves and the small island is flat and uninhabited. Apart from a few ruins and picturesque wrecks, there is nothing here that could swirl the trade wind and the kiteboarding conditions on the west side are simply ingenious and incomparable. We spend the night here, before the natural port Spanish Waters on Curacao awaits us, where the anchor falls in the slipstream of Table Mountain. At the finish of our adventure, the island welcomes us with a visit in the art studio of the Berlin Serena, who has settled on the island to craft her Chichis, right next to Nick’s kite spot in the middle of St Joris Bay, one of the few spots in Curacao.

For some of our guests, it is time to say goodbye to MARLIN and skipper Micha, who won’t insist on taking you personally to the airport. For those, who still haven’t had enough adventure and expedition, Colombia is on the schedule, where St. Marta and Barranchilla are expecting us during the upcoming journey.

An expedition with the MARLIN is adventure in perfection. From the first day on you will be coddled and accompanied by us. We offer an all-inclusive package and do not work with hidden costs. What seems expensive at first glance is your complete feel-good package…

We have to fill in some papers at the authorities, a parking fee is due and we are allowed already to stay two weeks and can kite as much and as long as we want. Here is a little appetizer of what you can expect. The kite spot is called Saki-Saki. The video is made from Nuria Goma, friend of MARLIN. “I would never get tired of this place. Definitely Los Roques just got into my top 3 list of favourite kite spots in the world!”, says Nuria. Nuria Goma can be booked as a kite trainer if you are interested.

We fully enjoy the time on the islands of the turquoise archipelago, and, when the sun goes down, we sit on the beach and grill on the open fire what the fishermen bring to us.
