The beginner’s kitesurfing course is designed for people with no previous experience who want to discover this sport in a safe and gradual way.

During this course, you’ll learn the basics needed to control the kite and start riding.

Stages of the beginner’s course:

  1. Controlling the kite on land: launching, landing and basic handling.
  2. Controlling the kite in the water: body dragging, relaunching and steering.
  3. First glides: standing up on the board and starting to ride.

 

You can choose between private, semi-private or group lessons

Intermediate

The intermediate kitesurfing course is aimed at people who already know the basics of the sport but still find it difficult to ride upwind or do not feel entirely confident enough to practise independently.

At this level, we focus on the techniques needed for students to become independent kitesurfers, with greater control, safety and confidence in a variety of conditions.

For this level, we recommend taking the course as a private or semi-private lesson.

Advanzed

The advanced kitesurfing course is designed for riders who are already comfortable riding upwind and wish to develop their technical skills.

At this level, we introduce jumps, manoeuvres and different riding styles.

Skills that can be learnt at the advanced level:

  • Freestyle

  • Strapless

  • Kite Foil

The one that best suits your schedule, goals and budget…

Generally speaking, there are three types of courses depending on the number of students, all under the supervision and guidance of an instructor.

Group kitesurfing course: These consist of 3–4 students and one instructor. This group is designed for people who already know each other and want to enjoy their first kitesurfing experience together. Each student has their own personal kit (wetsuit, harness, helmet, life jacket). The kite is shared between two people.

Semi-private kitesurfing course: Just two students with one instructor. Each student has their own personal equipment. As for the kite, one or two kites may be used depending on the students, the conditions and the instructor’s judgement. It is the ideal course to share with a friend, child, partner…

The real secret to progressing quickly in kitesurfing lies in the time the instructor spends with you. That is why a semi-private course is a way to save time when learning.

Private Kitesurfing Course: This is the best way to learn, especially if you want to save time. One student with all the equipment to themselves and an instructor teaching and correcting them at all times.

Any of these three courses is suitable for a complete beginner starting from scratch.

Of course. We also offer tailored courses and instructors who specialise in teaching children.

Generally, these courses will take place on days when the wind is light or moderate.

An instructor with extensive experience, dedicated exclusively to teaching kitesurfing in Tarifa and its unique wind conditions. All of them hold international IKO (International Kitesurfing Organisation) and/or national FAV (Andalusian Sailing Federation) qualifications.

Most importantly, they are passionate about the sport and enjoy teaching and sharing their knowledge.

Upon completing your kitesurfing course, if you wish, you will receive an IKO international certificate, which will allow you to continue your course elsewhere or hire equipment.

We provide all the equipment: wetsuits, harnesses, life jackets, helmets and, above all, kitesurfing gear – kites, bars and boards – from the best brands and of the highest quality, such as Core, Crazyfly, Halley kiteboarding, Ride Engine and O’Neill.

In addition, in private and semi-private lessons, we’ll provide headphones so you can always hear your teacher.

Comfortable clothing, sunglasses, sun cream, a cap or hat, plenty of water or juice to drink during the class, and above all, enthusiasm and energy – because you’re going to have a great time.

It’s quite normal to feel like continuing your learning once you’ve finished (which means you’ve really enjoyed it). Regardless of the level you’ve reached, the courses can be extended for as long as you need. There’s no standard course. You can start with 2 or 3 days and add more as you progress and as you feel like it.

There is also the option to add more hours to the course from the start to suit your needs: a 3-hour private course, a 4-hour semi-private course, etc.

We’ll give you a refund. Or rather: you only pay for the lessons you actually take. Or you can come back at any other time of the year to take the course – the choice is yours.

If you have any further questions, we’ll be happy to answer them.
