After four weeks of snowkite events I'm dragging the family down to the warmth and beaches of Akumal, Mexico (near Tulum). I'm looking to chase a kite around the blue waters of the Riviera Maya, but this isn't a "kite" trip. As such I am hoping to optimize my plans...
Questions:
1. Any recommendations on kite shops in the area? Hoping to not bring a board down and demo/rent instead.
2. Thinking of bringing a 13m down. Any reason I should bring a 9m and/or a 17m Zephyr?
3. Any weather stations you can recommend in the area?
4. Any locations I should definitely hit?
5. Anyone else going to be in the area want to connect for a kite session?
6. Any other tips for traveling to the area?
Thanks!
