Family Fun at Bitter End

For any family that enjoys a little active adventure at the beach or on the sea,
Bitter End is the ultimate family vacation destination.



Thanksgiving Week at Bitter End
November 22 – 29, 2008
Admiral’s Family Package (8 days/7 nights) starts at $8,120 for two adults and two children.

In addition to all of our regularly scheduled activities, we offer additional special events and expanded programs for Thanksgiving Week. While older kids are taking part in the Hobie Wave Family Fun Week (see below), younger kids will be able to participate in expanded kids’ programs led by our Kids Camp Coordinator; and everyone is invited to participate in the Turkey Day Regatta and celebrate at our Thanksgiving Feast. All of these extra events and activities are included in standard Admiral’s Package pricing.

And don’t forget: Our Kids’ Camp Coordinator and Bitter End staff conduct expanded kids programs at least six weeks throughout the year, offering expert instruction in dinghy sailing, windsurfing, and the safe handling of boats, as well as fun activities such as tube riding and banana boating, family regattas and Beach Olympics.



Hobie Wave Family Fun Week
November 22 – 29, 2008
Admiral’s Family Package (8 days/7 nights) starts at $8,120 for two adults and two children.

Bitter End’s Hobie catamarans are a favorite among guests. They are easy for new sailors to use, yet the Getaways are a great performance boat for experienced sailors, and no matter your skill level, they are a lot of fun. A whole family can pack a picnic lunch and some towels and take off on one for the day, sailing North Sound and exploring deserted beaches and the underwater world.

Bitter End is one of Hobie’s favorite places, and for the fourth year in a row, Hobie Cat president Doug Skidmore is inviting families to join him at the resort for a week of sailing tips from those in the know (Doug himself, as well as his team of experts, including Dan Mangus, Hobie Cat’s marketing director, and also the chair for most of Hobie’s regattas and clinics) and a series of fun races that show off new skills you and your kids have learned aboard Bitter End’s fleet of Hobie Waves and Getaways.
