What’s included:
What’s not included:
The only thing your instructor will expect from you is that you know how to swim, but of course, being in good shape helps. Strength isn’t a necessary component to successful kiteboarding; it’s all about the technique, which is why it’s the perfect sport to take lessons as a beginner.
If you’re new to kiting, help from the guide will benefit you immensely. Technically, all you need to know to kiteboard is how to swim and how to stand on the board, but keep in mind that private courses are not included in the price. Still, beginners are more than welcome to join. An instructor will make sure you’re safe while you get the hang of it, and will show you some tips and tricks needed to progress quickly and get you out there on your own in no time.
Wetsuit and booties can be rented for an additional fee. Let us know if you need this gear as it is mandatory equipment for the lessons
