The boat slips away from the shore and the shoreline of Bávaro recedes: reef-tipped surf, tall palms, and the sugar-white sand you just left. Within minutes the harness tugs, the canopy catches a steady offshore breeze, and you rise—calm as a gull—above the turquoise shelf. For roughly ten flying minutes the coastline unfurls below: hotels, coral outcrops, and the occasional kiteboarder threading a wake.
