While kitesurfing is often classed as an extreme sport once you have learned how to steer the kite YOU are in control. If you want to push the limits fine, learn how to boost huge jumps, pull off “kite-loops" or whatever go ahead. But if you want to get a rush simply kiting back and forth with smooth turns or aerial transitions then don’t think twice, go for it! Learning to kite has never been safer.

Initial body dragging is done with Student and instructor attached by means of a leash. When the student is “solo” the instructor is still able to communicate with the student via radio. In the event the student cannot return to shore the rescue jet ski is ready to go at a moments.

Our beginner kite course is broken down into 3 parts.

Each part takes 3 hours and costs $180
