The Destination
The Experience
We'll take you across the desert of Colombia to three different kite spots across La Guajira region where the desert and Caribbean meet. During the kite trip we will have short downwinders (optional) to kite with flamingos and the beautiful landscape.
Downwinders are optional, the alternative is always to kite directly on the spot or enjoy the beach in the warm Colombian sun with a drink in hand. Pleasantly tired from the whole day's kite adventures, we will spend the evenings under the starry sky with a bonfire and take part in cultural evenings where we will get to know the culture of the Wuayúu people better.
What is Unique About Us?
Our aim is about creating an experience supporting local communities as we chase the wind. Because La Guajira region is so remote the Wayùu (local indigenous community) is far from medical assistance, fresh water and electricity. We have partnered with local organizations to provide fresh water tanks, school supplies and medical assistance for every kite trip that we do. As you join the upcoming kite trips you will be impacting these local communities.
What is Included?
-Airport pick-up/drop-off -Transportation to all kite spots in 4x4 -Accommodation in single rooms (7 nights) -All meals (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner) -IKO guide support during the trip and downwinders
