Kitesurfing in Cape Town

Kite Surfing in Cape Town is great for several reasons. Firstly the setting is spectacular, Kitesurfing with Table mountain as a back drop. However kitesurfing in Cape Town really delivers as Cape town generates affair amount of wind running of the 2 oceans—this makes Cape Town an ideal place to learn to Kite Surf.

On a one day Kitesurfing course we teach absolute beginners the basics of Kitesurfing. Professional kite surfers will show you the way to handle the kite from the beach and then take you out into the water and give you individual kite surfing training to make you confident in the water and prepare you for getting air high above the waves.

Conditions are so ideal in locations like Langebaan Lagoon and Dolphin Beach, many of the World's Pro Kite boarders come and train here. Consistent wind, great waves and unbeatable scenery make it one of the worlds kite boarding hotspots.

 

We also offer a 2 Day British Kitesurfing Association Course
The BKSA two day courses builds on the knowledge learnt on day one. It’s all about getting on the board and moving. This is where it gets interesting! By the end of day two you will know all about.

From here you will be at a stage where you will have learnt all the nuts and bolts
