You will evolve on an ideal and superb spot, in complete safety, supervised by a professional and passionate team.

Learn the basics practicing in a fun way:

  • The kite, essential element
  • equipment and setup, flying the kite, launching, landing…
  • Security basics
  • Body dragging, moving with the kite in the water
  • The board with the simulator (mechanism on the boat which simulates the kite’s traction)
