What to do besides kitesurfing
Local tips & no-wind alternatives: Wind can vary outside peak season. If we don’t have enough wind for kitesurf, we’ll adapt the plan: surf lessons (when conditions allow), SUP sessions, technique training on the beach (kite control, safety, and body-drag drills), or video coaching. We also help guests plan the best riding days and suggest local activities like sunset viewpoints, great seafood places, and nearby beaches for a relaxed day.
