Kiting off Barbuda's southern tip, with reef-protected flat water and shallow lagoons, in the area of the private Barbuda Ocean Club. Access is mostly through the resort, which runs boat and jet-ski support. Riding independently means going far from help, and the reef is shallow.
Remote location: ride with the local school.
Sparsely populated island; support is through the private resort only
A school operates here, so lessons and supervised sessions are fine. Riding on your own is not recommended unless you're experienced, because rescue and medical help are far away.
