Swell Surf Camp We have always been very proud of the hotel Jim and I created, which has been #1 in the Trip Advisor Popularity Rating practically since we opened, but Swell is now an award-winning hotel, receiving the Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence, 2011.

Jim’s really enjoying his Coreban SUP…… so much better than the crappy Naish SUP boards (another one has broken after just one year). He shot this footage with his Go-Pro camera, this time mounted on the front of the SUP. Julian Kidd is the other rider out with him – another big SUP fan. Click [...]
So finally, after almost 6 months and one board going missing, Jim finally gets his new Stand Up Paddleboard. I know I won’t be seeing him much over the next few mornings as he enjoys himself in the waves on Cabarete Reef. He bought a Coreban SUP, one of the most sought-after boards on the [...]

Cabarete has so much to offer the watersportmen and women; early birds get up for the surfing or Stand up paddle boarding now growing so fast on the town’s various reefs. Wind kicks in around lunchtime and then the kiteboarders, windsurfers and sailors are happy too. Another nice swell is on it’s way this week [...]
