One evening as I sat by the fire on the beach with one of my guests at the Kitesurfing Camp I was developing, my stereo was blaring under the stars and over the calm summer sea. We sat there chatting when I casually mentioned, as I stared at the broad and thick expanse of Bolina Island across from us, “Wouldn’t it be cool to organize an annual rave on that beach over there?”
We both got so excited about the idea that the next day I started laying the ground work to get it done. Easy to manage most things on our end, and since it wasn’t long ago that I had lived for a couple of years on the Ibiza version of South East Asia, Koh Phangan in Thailand, I blasted all my contacts there with the proposal to see if I could dig up a quality DJ.
In short, the answer was “No”, “Nada”, “Not my cuppa”, mostly citing the fact that no decent drugs were available in this country and its president had a habit of lining any user up against the wall to be shot.
It was a beautiful dream nevertheless and a beautiful beach and area to realize it in. Hopefully one day!
Below is the text for the rough first draft.
Dance to rave on a beautiful island in paradise, snorkel during the day in the clearest waters in the world, kitesurf, windsurf, wakeboard, beach volleyball, or go on a local island hopping tour to explore caves, an old Spanish fortress, shipwrecks for diving, or cliff diving straight into the ocean.
With a safe zone for a family friendly event, come join us every February full moon, when the winds are good, it almost never rains and dance under clear or sunny skies.
$120 includes the following:
Kite and windsurf (costs extra) with fab music rippling over virgin waters.
