Long Bay Beach kitesurfing

21° 46.8′ N · 72° 9.6′ W

Three miles of shallow, flat turquoise water on the Caicos Bank side, exposed to the ESE trades — the top kiteboarding spot on Provo and one of the best beginner kite beaches in the Caribbean.

Practical

Onshore to side-onshore wind, waist-deep water far out, sandy bottom. Calmer than Grace Bay on rough days. The grounded freighter La Famille Express (Hurricane Frances, 2004) sits about 2.3 miles offshore. South Bank Marina is at the beach's southwest end.

Best for

Kiting and flat-water play
