The 19th edition will be held from 29th of June till the 5th of July 2005. Since its foundation in 1986 Aruba Hi-Winds has remained the biggest name in windsurfing events in the Caribbean. Even surf greats like Robby Naish and Bjorn Dunkerbeck have raced at the light blue waters of our “One happy island” during the Aruba Hi-Winds. The windsurfing competition takes place at the famous “Fisherman’s Huts”, the best windsurf spot of Aruba. The spectacular kiteboarding contest mainly takes place at Boca Grandi, a popular kite board area on the south coast of the island.

It is the aim of the organizing committee to make the Aruba Hi-Winds within reach of as many sailors as possible from all economic backgrounds and from the various corners of the earth.
