Get away from the crowds and often gustier winds near shore and ride downwind.
Depending on how many kiteboarders, this is usually a door to door experience of 3.5 to 6 hours for 1-6 people. Keep in mind kiteboarding is weather dependent so we are all on call all day. Tentative start time for a.m. lessons is 10:00, confirmed at 9:00 by text. If there is no wind we push back. For p.m. lessons start time is dependent on how the morning goes, some days there is only enough wind to do one lesson so the pm lesson is canceled and some days the weather does not cooperate.
I offer 3 levels of service and exclusivity outlined below. Basically, at the economy level you share the boat with other kiters who ride solo during your lesson time helping to lower the cost. At the Elite plus level the entire boat is reserved for you and anyone you choose to invite. With first class I block off my entire day allowing us to focus on getting you out at the peak of conditions for the day, also includes catering of meal, snacks, drinks and for a limited time my new ai camerama
Share the experience, includes bottled water
Private lesson for you, but other kiterboarders join and ride solo off the boat during your lesson time. Each additional solo rider adds roughly 30 mins to the door to door duration of our adventure.
