shared couple of beers, watched the beautiful<br />
night sky and went to sleep waiting for<br />
the morning’s sail.<br />
We headed south from Grenada towards<br />
the islands of Grenadines, where captain<br />
knew couple of nice spots for kiting. Wind<br />
was pretty light during our sail but since<br />
we were going directly against the wind<br />
and waves, catamaran was rocking us pretty<br />
hard. The first spot we visited was not<br />
entirely the perfect kite spot, but it had its<br />
charm. It had a simple and self-explanatory<br />
name “Sandy Island”, basically it was a small<br />
moon shaped piece of sand with a couple<br />

of a day, really felt like a wake up in paradise!<br />
Wind was a bit stronger, enough for<br />
some bigger light wind kites so we were<br />
able to jump into the water. Liloo did some<br />
cruising shots, Tommy made a nice boardoff<br />
and I managed to get some Darkslide<br />
in front of Andre’s lens, one time even too<br />
close with the spray on to his camera (sorry<br />
Andre!). Forest did also some epic drone<br />
shots, so we could conclude it was a really<br />
eventful day! Even though the wind was<br />
light, I somehow managed to kite for most<br />
of the day so the evening I just dropped
