For those who want to be a bit more daring on their vacation, Aruba Kite offers lessons for travelers to partake in one of the biggest growing water sports in the world: kite surfing. Zip across the waves only for the wind to carry you flying into the air with ease. Anyone feeling a little crazy can try to do as many flips & spins as they can before landing back on the water.

Strong currents & fierce winds For one of the more intense locations in Aruba for wind sports, Boca Grandi beach is a beautiful stretch where the more experienced wind sport enthusiasts can show off their moves. Spectators can frequently be found watching along the white beach, according to Aruba.com.
