Kite surfing at Shacks Beach, Puerto Rico

Kite surfing at Shacks Beach, northwest Puerto Rico

Shacks Beach, where we’re staying on the island’s northwest corner, has a reputation as one of the finest kite surfing beaches in the Caribbean/Atlantic. Today it lived up to that reputation with winds out tof the east at 18-22 mph. A couple of kite surfers took full advantage of the wind and spent a good part of the afternoon grabbing big air out on the ocean.

 It was great for kite surfing but lousy for snorkeling. Those winds really roughed up the ocean and churned up the bottom, making visibility pretty bad. The east wind also pushed some pretty stong east-to-west currents. So we didn’t make it out to Blue Hole today. Maybe manana.
