CABARETE: SKILL LEVEL

The varied conditions provide an ideal playground for all abilities. The conditions are usually light in the mornings, which make it perfect for beginners.

At around noon or one o’clock, the wind is drawn in by the thermal currents and blows harder all afternoon and early evening - the 15-25 knot sideshore winds bring chop to the bay and breaking waves at the reef for more advanced sailors. This pattern makes it perfect place for a wide variety of skills levels and is also a blessing for those who want to take advantage of Cabarete’s thriving nightlife.

Also, wind strengths vary depending on the distance from shore - the farther one ventures out, the stronger it gets.
