Windsurfing is an amazing sport to learn. In your first lesson you will start on the beach with a simulator which shows you how the equipment will react in the water. The instructor will show you the equipment and demonstrate how to get into the correct sailing position, get going, stop & turn. Then it is time to get in the water! Once you get up and going its a great feeling and in your first lesson you should be able to start your turns towards the wind (Tac) We offer private sessions. With Private lessons you can enjoy 1 on 1 instruction and have the equipment to yourself for the full session. As your lessons progress you will learn how to go upwind and downwind, how to turn towards the wind (Tac) and away from the wind (Gybe) Eventually the goal is to become independent so you can rent equipment and practice on your own. It is awesome fun and our instructors are some of the very best!
