My wife and I are discussing a 3 or 4 day get away in sept or november. She is kind of interested in the out islands, I am not picky because she is gracious enough to try to work kiting into our get away for me. Here are my questions.

Is there anyone that might do a class in the out islands? I have had a 3 day beginner class and just need a helping hand getting up and going.

What is the wind like during sept nov is it worth trying to kite?


Thanks,
Thomas

Hopefully AJ (Nassau) and Chris (Exumas) will chime in on instructional prospects. I am not aware of kiteboarding instructors on other islands in the Bahamas currently. These is a possibility of something coming online on Rum Cay but I have no idea if they ever pulled something together and to what degree.

For wind, November should be better than September. September also has a higher risk of tropical systems, aka hurricanes which can really mess up travel plans and sane kiting sessions often enough.
