About this tour

This private tuition covers foundational skills, body positioning, and water confidence, culminating in IKO certification.

The course builds genuine proficiency rather than offering a fleeting thrill, leaving you genuinely capable on the water.

What to expect
Expect to spend mornings and afternoons on the water, progressively building board control and kite handling. Days one and two focus on kite awareness and body positioning in shallow water. Days three and four introduce board work and short runs downwind. Sessions run 2–3 hours depending on conditions and your pace. You'll finish exhausted but with measurable progress—the kite will respond to your inputs, and you'll maintain balance through minor gusts. Instructors tailor pacing to your fitness level; prior board sports experience helps but isn't essential.
Good to know
Not suitable if pregnant or with serious cardiovascular concerns. Bring sunscreen and stay hydrated between sessions. Tenerife's trade winds blow most reliably in afternoon windows. Public transport reaches the beach spot. Infants can accompany your group in pushchairs.
