WINDSURF / KITESURF / SURF / SUP / KAYAK

Don’t miss the 8th Annual Butterfly Effect in Cabarete, featuring:
• Downwinder to Playa Encuentro
• Group Yoga & Hula Dance
• Beach clean-up
• Ending ceremony and after-party

Local and visiting waterwomen from all over the world gather each year on the beach of Cabarete to complete a 4km downwind ride from Cabarete Bay to Playa Encuentro. The event is open to women who windsurf, kitesurf, surf, stand up paddle (SUP) or kayak. The aim of the event is to unite our individual athletic abilities and celebrate our accomplishments as a united group. Over the course of the event many other girls and women are inspired to get out on the ocean and try some of the sports for the first time. The event includes a beach cleanup, safety and stretching sessions, as well as food and gear from local sponsors, culminating in a celebration held at the luxurious Millennium Resort & Spa.
