This group lesson takes you through the basics of kite surfing. A professional, IKO certified instructor is assigned between 3 to 4 persons that are inexperienced in kite surfing. The instructors are dedicated and passionate and they are ready to help build your confidence and skill with the safest and most exhilarating methods. The small group ensures the experience is lively without running the risk of being overcrowded. And since every group member is a greenhorn, there is an equal platform for learning and the instructor would be starting right from the basics. It would be a great lesson to take with your partner or family. 

Usually, we provide a pick-up and drop-off at your accommodation (in the area of Playa del Inglés/Maspalomas). The whole kite experience takes between 4 and 5 hours (including transfers and gathering equipment). This can be different depending on the weather conditions.

Our instructors will provide you with water and a snack.
