Have you ever wanted to kitesurf in South Africa? Our kitesurfing school in Cape Town offers courses for all skill levels, from beginner to advanced lessons.
Our day courses are the most popular, allowing students to progress at a fast but comfortable pace. All instructors are IKO (International Kiteboarding Organization) qualified and follow their guidelines for safety and steps to complete.
We teach up to a maximum of 3 students per instructor and our school is unique in that teaching equipment is not shared between students. Our courses will give you an inspiring introduction to kiteboarding, and literally get you hooked! Once students complete a course with us, they are never left to their own and we will always keep an eye of beginner and novice kiters practising their skills near our training areas.
