Kitesurfing holidays

You'll start by learning to fly the kite whilst on the beach, getting used to the motion of the kite so that once you're on the water you can control where you're going.

You'll also learn how to launch and land the kite, experience a technique called 'body dragging' (basically kitesurfing without the board - it's a lot of fun).

Finally you'll bring the board and kite together on the water. From the moment you launch your first kite and skim across the water, you'll be hooked.
 

Take a holiday to Baia dei Mori Beachclub and if the conditions are right, you can book an intro to kitesurfing session with Budoni Kite, one of the local kitesurfing schools. They teach at La Cinta kite beach, close to San  Teodoro (around a 10-minute drive away).

One of the Neilson team will be on hand to help you make arrangements, but as this is not a Neilson activity, it is subject to availability and is very much wind dependent (minimum age is 16 years). 

If you can already kitesurf and plan to go it alone, you'll need to be qualified to IKO or BKSA level 2 or 3 (safety cover can be organised locally), we have a small number of boards available for you to use - just bring your own kite.
