Boca Grandi is Aruba’s kitesurfing hotspot on the southeast coast. The winds here are strong and consistent, with turquoise water and long open stretches of sand. It’s not safe for casual swimming due to currents, but the sight of colorful kites filling the sky is worth the trip.
On a windy afternoon, dozens of kites dance against the blue horizon a natural spectacle that makes for striking wide shots. Photographers love capturing the contrast of bright sails over the rugged southern coast.
