Wingfoil Cruising in the Caribbean:
What to Expect?
Wingfoil cruising combines the freedom of sailing with the thrill of foiling. Unlike traditional wind sports, wingfoiling lets you glide above the water with minimal resistance, making it perfect for exploring wingfoiling spots from a catamaran base. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn on a wingfoil beginner cruise or an experienced rider seeking exciting wingfoil downwinders, a wingfoil vacation offers the ideal combination of adventure, instruction, and relaxation.
Why a Wingfoil Cruise is ideal from a Catamaran
Benefits of Wingfoiling from a Catamaran
Catamarans provide the perfect mobile platform for wingfoil adventures in the Caribbean. Unlike shore-based operations, our vessels can move daily and position you in the best wingfoiling spots depending on wind and water conditions. We anchor in protected bays with flat water for beginners and advanced riders. The wide and stable deck offers plenty of space to set up your gear and store it safely overnight. You don't have to carry your equipment back and forth — everything stays ready and within reach.
Checking the best Wingfoil Spot based on the conditions
Each morning begins with a detailed wind and weather conditions briefing led by our experienced crew. We analyze wind forecasts to select the optimal location for the day's wingfoil sessions. After a breakfast, we set sail toward the best spot, arriving just in time to catch ideal wind windows. Throughout the day, you'll have the flexibility to ride when you want to - no waiting for shuttles or chasing wind forecasts from shore just take you gear, jump from the boat and start your session.
More Than Just Riding
Between wingfoil sessions, unwind on deck with a cold drink, snorkel vibrant coral reefs, or enjoy freshly prepared meals by our onboard chef. In the evening, relax with sunset views and connect with fellow riders. This floating basecamp offers the perfect mix of adventure, comfort, and community — all tailored to maximize your time on the water.

Best Time to Wingfoil in the Caribbean
The ideal time for wingfoiling in the Caribbean is between December and June, when the trade winds are most reliable. During these months, most islands benefit from 15 to 25 knot winds, patterns and sunny weather — perfect conditions for both beginners and advanced riders. The shoulder months like November and July can still offer good sessions. From August to October, conditions become more unpredictable due to hurricane season.
Choosing Wing Sizes for the Caribbean
We recommend bringing 2-3 wing sizes to cover various wind conditions during your wingfoil cruise. For Caribbean trade winds (15-25 knots), most riders use 4m-6m wings. Larger wings (5m-7m) work better for lighter winds or beginners. Our boats carry a selection of Duotone Wings for you to rent during your wingfoil vacation.
Recommended Foil Setups by Skill Level
The right foil makes all the difference in your Caribbean Wingfoil experience. Beginners should use larger front wings (1500-2000cm²) for stability, while advanced riders can opt for high-aspect performance Foils. We provide a range of mast lengths (75cm-90cm) to suit different conditions at various wingfoiling spots.
Onboard Duotone Equipment
Our catamaran is fully equipped with high-quality Duotone wingfoil gear for all levels. Whether you're just getting started or want to test advanced setups, we offer a range of wings, boards, and foils. Need help choosing the right size or setup? Our crew provides expert advice and tips/tricks to help you progress faster. You can bring your own gear or travel light and rely on our curated onboard selection — ideal for those wanting to explore different styles during the trip.
What a Typical Day Looks Like on a Wingfoil Cruise
Session Schedule & Onboard Life
Each day begins with a healthy breakfast and a short weather and conditions briefing. Based on wind and tides, the crew selects the best spot for the morning wingfoil session. After a few hours on the water, enjoy lunch on deck and recharge. In the afternoon, you'll have another chance to ride or explore nearby beaches and reefs. The flexible schedule allows you to balance action and relaxation at your own pace.
Who Should Book a Wingfoil Cruise?
Wingfoil cruises are ideal for anyone who loves water sports and wants to explore remote, beautiful spots with perfect riding conditions. Whether you're a complete beginner looking for structured coaching in calm bays, just started flying and starting with the first transitions or an experienced rider seeking challenging downwinders and our Wingfoil cruise offer something for everyone. It's also a great option for couples or mixed-level groups, since each rider can progress at their own pace and return to the comfort of the catamaran between sessions. If you're dreaming of a week focused on progression, adventure, and fun — a wingfoil cruise is a perfect fit.
