“Wow…” Suus and I were flabbergasted when we arrived at the kite spot. After leaving Kralendijk, the bigger of the two towns on the island, we had driven via the coast to the far southeast point of the island, past pink salt lakes, numerous flamingos, sleepy donkeys, excited divers in full gear next to the road, and the most amazing emerald-colored water… This island gets to you in seconds. Originally afraid that we’d be spending our time with retirees seeking winter sun, we instead found a lively and entertaining surf vibe, amazing people, and perfect conditions.
