LEARNING KITESURF – 3 DAYS/9 HOURS – AND THE 4th DAY FREE PRACTICE

Learning Kitesurfing is easier than you think! With only 3 lessons (each one 3h long) we can teach you kitesurfing and we guarantee you will be riding alone by the end of the 9th Hour, or we will give you an extra lesson, as simple as that.  And if after 3 days you are ready and your holiday is still not over, you can have our equipment to continue practicing under our supervision for one day. Our goal is to train you till we feel you are ready to be independent in the water.

We are giving lessons during our kitesurfing cruises, or in Hurghada, El Gouna, Soma Bay, Makadi Bay and Safaga, choosing a different kite spot depending on wind conditions and where your hotel is located.

Our instructors can speak English, Italian, Russian, German and French, they are experienced and qualified to ensure a safe and professional environment where to learn kitesurfing. All lessons will be private, if possible, meaning that it’s one student/one instructor. We teach using IKO standard and at the end of your course, you will receive an IKO Card certifying your kitesurfing level. For more info on IKO, click here.

Simply contact us and we will arrange everything: we will provide all equipment needed, and help arrange transportation from and back to your hotel.

TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING

  • A classic Full schedule 9h course needs 3 days to complete – at the end of the 3rd day typically a student is able to ride for very short distance independently and safe – further practice is of course necessary for riding longer.

  • Check our Price table below, we teach privately with max one instructor per 2 students – never more, to make sure that you have plenty of time in the water.

  • After that day, you are welcome to join us when we go kiting (for free). You will of course need your own equipment or rent some equipment from us – check below our rental prices, they are super competitive!

  • It’s easier and you avoid having to carry around cash with you! Plus, you will help us organize our awesome instructor and make sure the equipment is ready and reserved for you!

  • Sunglasses and high protection sun cream for your face. Both very important items.

    You will be using one of our wetsuits or rush guards (if needed) to protect you from cold water (winter only) or the Sun (every day).

    Also reccomended shoes for the water – diving shoes are typically used by our students, but we do provide water shoes in case.
