    Bonaire

    On the quiet and tranquil Island of Bonaire, sits one of the most beautiful stretches of sand in the Caribbean. The resort has a private beach with shaded cabanas and lounge chairs. The shallow bay is protected by a coral reef and is ideal for swimmers, snorkelers and windsurfers. 

    The hotel also offers a fantastic beach bar and lounge where you can relax with your feet in the white powder sand. All the while you are enjoying refreshing cocktails and delicious snacks in a relaxing ambiance. Daily fresh lunch specials are accompanied by the greens from the hotel's very own greenhouse, made just next to you in the open-air kitchen and served by the enthusiastic Sorobon staff. Enjoy the extensive easy-going healthy menu of sandwiches, salads, wraps and more, with even an occasional freshly caught fish!

So, you're working on your jibes and you want to get them perfect? Join us on this clinic in Bonaire to improve your skills. One of the typical obstacles in learning to jibe is maneuvering that board around into waterstart position again after you blow it. Just like the beginner having to uphaul after taking numerous plunges, it's way too tiring. Not in Bonaire. That shallow water is a blessing. Working on your jumps and chop hops? Go a little farther out into the bay and there are superb little wind swells off which to fly. Trying to sail faster? Pick a line along the outside reef where the water is dead flat and learn to pressure your feet, rake your sail and get your harness lines dialed.
