About Bermuda

Bermuda combines reliable year-round wind with tropical scenery and a welcoming kite community. Consistent conditions prevail November through May, when strong Atlantic frontal systems bring excellent sailing days. Long Bay and Daniel's Head offer fantastic flat water, while Horseshoe suits wave riding and Elbow Beach works in predominant southwest winds. Water temperature varies seasonally, requiring boardshorts in summer and wetsuits in winter. The island's stunning weather, quality instruction, and vibrant community offset the premium cost. Scooter rental provides convenient access to multiple spots.
