If you can find a more trendy and happening place to kite and hang than Florianopolis, Brazil, you're the man.

See the recent NY Times article, and local Surf/Kite site below.

NY Times party destination of the year.....
Surfing and kiting heaven..

Well glad I chose last winter for escaping the cold european waters. Mind the water is not so warm around WA.
Anybody been to zanzibar? Just came back from 10 days in december. Had a ball! 10 days consistent winds turquoise clear lagoon and some small waves (1.5m) to play with. I recommand it as the lagoon is so big and the reef so long that it doesn't matter how many kites you may fit into it. Destination still away from crowds (remind me of what I said about Ceara Brasil 6 years ago... :roll: )
