Kitesurfing lessons and courses with experts north of the Ile de Ré
Do you dream of gliding across the water in total freedom? Take a look at our kitesurfing lessons and courses on the Ile de Ré, supervised by passionate professionals.
Supervision by recognised riders:
As soon as you arrive, you'll be greeted by Alex ROBIN, kitesurf instructor trainer at the École Nationale de Voile et des Sports Nautiques since 2012, and Grégoire Rochereau, experienced instructor. Their teaching methods will ensure that you progress quickly and safely, adapted to your level. Their aim is to teach you to kitesurf safely and in good humour.
Personalised lessons for all levels:
Whether you're a beginner or want to perfect your kite and board skills, our courses are designed to meet your needs.
- Initiation: discovering how to handle the kite, the flight window and the basics of piloting. Of course, we'll teach you how to get properly equipped. From the wetsuit to the harness, as well as the helmet and lifejacket that are compulsory in kitesurfing school.
- Progression: work on the waterstart, controlling the glide on a kitesurf board, transitions, going upwind and autonomy on the water.
- Improvement: improving navigation and heading, and learning the first tricks and different boards. Learn to kite with a surfboard under your feet (strapless kitesurfing) or a foil (kitefoil).
During kite coaching and supervised navigation you will have a walkie-talkie. The radio will give you the best tips in real time. All equipment and compulsory insurance are included in the price.
We'll look at all the methods for relaunching a kite whatever the conditions and self rescue to enable you to get back on board even if the kite doesn't relaunch or in the event of equipment breakage in your future independent practice.
Spots adapted to all conditions:
Our lessons take place at the best kitesurfing spots on the Ile de Ré, depending on weather and tide conditions. We use :
- Diamond Head at Saint-Clément-des-Baleines, ideal from the north-west at low tide
- Le banc du Bûcheron (car park in the Anse du Fourneau at Les Portes-en-Ré), ideal for north-easterly at low tide
- Le Boutillon, near Le Martray between Ars-en-Ré and La Couarde, ideal from the south-west at low tide
- The Ars-en-Ré sailing school, near the harbourmaster's office in the new port, for all boat departures whatever the wind.
These spots, well known from the Windguru, Windy and Windfinder weather forecasts, offer ideal conditions for learning and progressing in complete safety.
Top-of-the-range equipment, available for sale second-hand:
We use the latest generation equipment from FLYSURFER and NORTH KITEBOARDING, regularly renewed for maximum comfort and safety. At the end of your course, you can buy second-hand equipment so that you can continue to progress independently. Check out the second-hand kitesurfing section of our website.
Prices and booking :
Our kitesurfing sessions start at €100 per person for supervised sailing and €150 per person for lessons (all inclusive: equipment and insurance).
