About Dutchman's Bay

Dutchman's Bay offers intermediate riders a mix of flat and choppy water with more variety than beginner-only venues. The beach launch provides convenient entry, while a reef system creates additional features for progression. Conditions range from manageable chop to more dynamic water depending on wind strength and swell. This bay serves as a good stepping stone between protected beginner spots and more challenging open-water locations in the Leeward Islands.
