**All boat supported luxe kiteboarding lessons take advantage of 2 way radio helmets to insure maximum productivity. Additionally, the open-air shower is always ready, the second you get out of the salt water to freshen up before toweling off.
The western laguna madre is exclusive, the only launch site is along the shores of the golf course community. Thus only owners and guests in the golf course, those brave enough to cross the bay via kite and those who come by boat can access it. Boasting wide open spaces, there are many days when the best wind is along the mainland and we take advantage of our access often.
