BEGINNER KITESURFING COURSE TARIFA 
Beginner Kitesurfing Course Tarifa is a real passion for team leader Gray Robinson. If you want to learn, he wants to teach you. Gray loves to introduce new people to the sport and loves helping them progress from rookie to rockstar in a fewteam easy steps. Our 3 day beginners kitesurfing course is your ideal starting point if you want to learn kitesurfing.
We’ll teach you everything from scratch. Although kitesurfing can seem daunting at first, with expert guidance you can progress much more quickly than you might think. By the end of the course you’ll know where it’s safe to do kitesurfing, how to fly a power kite and have the skills and confidence you need to get up on your board and ride.
BEGINNER KITESURFING COURSE TARIFA
Our beginner kitesurf course in Tarifa is scheduled to be done in 3 days. We recommend a private lesson for beginners – it’s the fastest way for you to progress, progress will make you happy, and we want you to be happy!
Everyone progresses at a different rate but this is roughly what you’ll be doing on each day of the course.
Day 1 begins with spot identification, reading the weather and safety procedures. Then you’ll learn to set up and fly a trainer kite and a full size kite. You might move on to body dragging and even board starts.
Day 2 kicks off with a refresh of what you learn on day 1. You’ll probably do a recap of body dragging then some board starts and if your confidence and skill levels are high enough move on to some short rides downwind.
Day 3 starts with another recap, and everyone should be getting up on the board, trying some downwind riding and with a bit of luck and a following wind you’ll attempt some upwind riding and your first transitions.
For a detailed breakdown of the minimum we’d hope to teach you take a look at the day tabs at the top of the page. If you’re ready to learn more than that, we’re here to teach you how.
We’ll never push you harder than you want to go but we’ll always try and help you make as much progress as possible.
KITESURFING CAPITAL OF EUROPE
Tarifa is a fantastic place to learn to kitesurf.
Our unique location on the Strait of Gibraltar means it’s almost always windy in Tarifa.
The presence of the Sea Angels rescue boats on the main kite beach at Los Lances mean that every wind direction is kiteable here. Check out all the Kite Spots in and near Tarifa!
The tidal lagoons at Los Lances and Valdevaqueros are ideal spots to practice your first board starts. Don’t worry about being dragged around by waves or getting a mouthful of salt water!
There are more sheltered beaches at: Bolonia, Palmones and Los Canos de Meca!
When the wind is too strong in Tarifa there are plenty of options only a short drive away.
The consistent wind and variety of spots on offer are the reason that Tarifa is the kitesurfing capital of Europe. If you learn to kitesurf here you can kitesurf confidently anywhere.
Tarifa is probably the best place in the world to learn to be an independent kite surfer.GRAYKITE’S TEACHING METHODOLOGY
