What is a kitesurf downwinder?
A downwinder is a ride along the coast in the direction of the wind: you start at one point and finish further downwind, instead of coming back to where you started. It is for confident, independent riders.
Downwinders start from €70, with a minimum of 3 people; transport and gear are included. The route and the timing depend on the wind and the tide on the day, and we confirm the details with you on WhatsApp.
From €70 · 3 people min. · transport and gear included

Safety first
- Never kite in offshore wind alone.

- Keep at least 50 m of clear space downwind from people and obstacles.
- Use your quick release and leash, and respect swimming zones in summer.
