TEACHING

For The Kitesurf Academy kitesurfing is not just a sport, it’s a way of life! And Ireland is one of the best places to start this adventure.

​

Kitesurfing is an amazing sport, but to ride safely and to ensure good progression it does require proper training, as kitesurfing can be difficult and potentially dangerous without lessons.

Lessons only take place when there enough wind . There are no fixed schedules as we are entirely wind dependent . We need about 14mph to run a lesson program . 

Locations vary as we need to be mobile to adapt to different wind  directions . Predominantly we use beaches in North Down and Ards Pennisula. Check out OUR LOCATIONS

Wind and tide forecasts are  key to ensure the right beach and the correct tide for that beach !
