Kitesurfing Lesson - 2hrs

Kitesurfing, a young sport that became accessible around 1989, offers an unparalleled sense of freedom and joy. One of the fastest-growing water sports in Australia and worldwide, it lets enthusiasts glide over water, land, or snow, as long as there's wind. The thrill of harnessing the wind's power makes kitesurfing an extraordinary experience.

At Smile Kitesurf, we adhere to Kiteboarding Australia’s (KA) teaching scheme for our kitesurfing lessons. We recommend a minimum of 3 lessons to ensure your understanding of kitesurfing and help you master skills like riding upwind and becoming a safe and independent rider.

Our lessons are one-on-one, allowing your instructor to assess your ability level and tailor the lesson to maximise your learning experience. It is important to remind that everyone learns at a different pace.

Check out our kitesurfing FAQ for more information.

* Equipment is provided for all lessons, including current model kites, boards, kite bar and lines, helmet with radio and flotation device for safety.
