  • Not just another conference.
    Not just another kite trip.

    Since 2021, Kite Doctors has organised accredited medical education events at the world's best kite and wingfoil destinations. Bonaire 2027 is our fifteenth edition and our first in the Caribbean.

    Mornings are dedicated to a scientific programme led by working physicians. Afternoons you take to the water at Atlantis Beach for kitesurfing and Sorobon Beach for wingfoiling, powered by the steady trade winds.

    What sets us apart: we are physicians and athletes. The format works because it was built by people who actually live both worlds.
