Calling all Diamond Aircraft owners and pilots! Imagine the thrill of piloting your aircraft to the pristine shores of the Bahamas, where turquoise waters and powdery white sands await. Cape Santa Maria Resort, nestled on Long Island, offers the perfect destination for your next adventure.
Join DPA on a fully escorted trip with Jim Parker’s Caribbean Flying Adventures to Cape Santa Maria Resort Nov 15-18, 2024 for an unforgettable escape:
• Private Airstrip: Fly directly to our nearby airstrip with ease.
• Luxury Accommodations: Stay in beachfront bungalows with stunning ocean views.
• Activities: Explore coral reefs, enjoy water sports, or simply relax on the beach.
• Dining: Savor exquisite Bahamian cuisine at our beachfront restaurant.
Whether you’re looking for relaxation or adventure, Cape Santa Maria Resort is your gateway to paradise. Take the controls and soar to an island getaway like no other.
If you’ve always wanted to fly yourself to the Bahamas, but have been unsure about the overwater flight in a single-engine airplane, then this is the trip for you. I flew my DA40 with Jim Parker and 32 other aircraft (C172, C182, Bonanza, Lancair, Meridian, Aerostar, Cirrus and many other types) to Cape Santa Maria last November and it was a BLAST!
The trip is filling up fast, so you need to make your reservations soon (search for: Caribbean Flying Adventures: Bahamas Nov 15-18, 2024)

Been there, done that.
Flew non-stop from Ft. Pierce, FL to Stella Maris airport on Long Island (KFPR-MYLS) in our DA62 -- with a group of other planes/pilots from northern VA back in 2018.
Here's a shot of the Cape Santa Maria resort located along the beach:

Anthony - yes, it is my intent to make this an Annual DPA Event. Ideally, I would like to take a group of just Diamond Owners to the resort, we just don't have enough folks expressing interest yet to do that.
