About
A self-catering cottage on a pristine private beach.

Description
Mutiny is a 4 bedroom cottage with it's own kitchen, dining room and living room located on Jamaica's beautiful North Coast. It is about 5 minutes drive from the annual Jazz and Blues Festival held in Trelawny, 10 minutes drive from Falmouth, about 40 minutes drive from Montego Bay, and about 1 hour's drive from Ocho Rios.

The vibe at Mutiny is a very laid back one, we want you to feel like a beach bum. Waste your days sunning yourself, and wash off your worries in the clear Caribbean water. If you feel like some exercise, wake up early and go snorkelling at the reef at the end of the bay, or try out a wind/kite surfing lesson at the property next door. If you can't swim but would still like to see the reef, we can get Alfred to take you out on his fishing errrr "boat" - 6am departure! Don't forget you can also work up a sweat on the tennis court - no need to bring balls or racquets since we have a few spare ones.

Kitesurfing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kitesurfing or kiteboarding is a surface water sport combining aspects of wakeboarding,windsurfing, surfing, paragliding, and gymnastics into one extreme sport. A kitesurfer orkiteboarder harnesses the power of the wind with a large controllable power kite to be propelled across the water on a kiteboard similar to a wakeboard or a small surfboard, with or without foot-straps or bindings. The terms kiteboarding and kitesurfing are interchangeable, although kiteboarding may also refer to kite landboarding or kite snowboarding.
There are different styles of kiteboarding, including freestyle, freeride, downwinders, speed, course racing, wakestyle, jumping and wave-riding. In 2012, the number of kitesurfers has been estimated by the ISAF and IKA at 1.5 million persons worldwide  (pending review). The global market is worth US$250 million.

KITEBOARDING and it's history:

The Chinese are credited with using kites for propulsion in the 13th century.
In the 1800s George Pocock used kites of increased size to propel carts on land and ships on the water, using a 4-line control system - the same system in common use today. Both carts and boats were able to turn and sail upwind. The kites could be flown for sustained periods. The intention was to establish kitepower as an alternative to horsepower, partly to avoid the hated "horse tax" that was levied at that time. In 1903, aviation pioneer Samuel Cody developed "man-lifting kites" and succeeded in crossing the English channel in a small collapsible canvas boat powered by a kite.

In the late 1970s the development of Kevlar then Spectra flying lines and more controllable kites with improved efficiency contributed to practical kite traction. In 1978, Ian Day's "FlexiFoil" kite-powered Tornado catamaran exceeded 40 km/h.

Through the 1980s there were sporadic and occasionally successful attempts to combine kites with canoes, ice skates, snow skis, water skis and roller skates. Support Me Here At This Link
