Kitesurfing
Overview
Kitesurfing is the heady mix of flying a power kite and riding a board across the water, with the wind doing the heavy lifting. It looks spectacular, and learning to control the kite is the real first hurdle, but once it clicks you can ride, carve and even jump clean out of the water.
It pays to learn properly. Lessons start with kite control on land and in shallow water before you ever stand on a board, which is safer and far quicker than working it out yourself. Be patient through the early stages and the rewards are huge.
The instructors on adventuro run kitesurfing lessons for all levels, with the kit and safety gear provided. Get the kite skills nailed first, and the riding follows.
