The story

Cabarete Wind Festival in Cabarete

Cabarete, a top-ranked global windsurfing and kitesurfing destination with reliable May-to-October trade winds, hosts documented events including Cabarete Race Week and the Dominican Windsurfing Nationals; a specifically named Cabarete Wind Festival may represent one of these events under an alternate name rather than a fully distinct festival.

Cabarete has built an international reputation as a premier windsurfing and kitesurfing destination, ranked among the world's top ten beaches for both sports, with reliable side-shore winds from May through October typically blowing 20 to 25 knots.
