Kitesurfing

The Costa de la Luz is an incredibly popular destination for kitesurfing thanks to its consistent winds and beautiful beaches. Tarifa, just 40 minutes away, is considered one of the best kitesurfing spots in Europe and attracts enthusiasts from all over the world. Closer still is Canos de Meca (25 mins) which is generally quieter and also great for private lessons. We can organise group lessons or private one-on-one tuition with some of the most knowledgeable and trusted instructors in the area.
