Kite Kenya

 

Add to your Camp Kenya adventure with an introduction to one of the newest, fastest growing, exciting and most fun Water sports in the world… KITEBOARDING!

The Kenya coast is undeniably one of the best places in the world to learn to kiteboard. Shallow, warm, reef protected water, perfect side-shore winds and lots of super wide beach to make your learning experience fantastic!

Our friendly instructors will make sure your experience is both fun and safe. It typically takes a few days to teach you the basics and get you up and riding across the Turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. It’s not as hard as it looks but definitely as cool as it looks!!

 

 

 

What’s covered in the course?

 

Trainer Kite– Fly It Right!

 

Everyone learns to kiteboard starting with a trainer kite on the beach. In this program we teach you all the right techniques to avoid bad habits right from the start. You will learn kite control, launching and landing, flying in a harness, one handed flying, and simulations so that you are ready for the water.

Into The Water:

 

During this phase of the course you will learn water launching, body dragging (sounds terrible but actually great fun!), board control and how to tack the kite. In addition you will learn the all important skills associated with self rescue in order that you are fully prepared for any eventuality.

 

Up and riding:

 

Once you have all the basics under your harness it is time to get up on the board and riding across the Indian Ocean. You will be amazed at how easy and addictive this sport is.

 

 

Fantastic, the Kenyans and all the workers were wicked. Very impressed by the organisation. A fantastic trip full of inspirational memories. All the staff and the other gappers were quality! Feel I have so much more confidence to travel and I’m already planning my next trip!
