Sitting out in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands get a trade wind that is perfect for kitesurfing. The winds start in May and become consistent by June & July then decrease around November and the "doldrums" set in about December.. Perfect for SUP!

SUP'ing is also good in the trade wind season as the boards can be paddled on the east side of the atoll, protected by the winds, or the wind can be used for long down winders.

Zephyr Kite Tours opens the centre in the thick of it where the winds are the best for kiting. Our tours start at the end of July until mid October. This means all the tours are likely to get the best winds possible!

From our recent survey 90% of people that have visited the Cocos Islands for kitesurfing ticked "kited all day everyday" & "Kited most days"

As the seasons change, so does Zephyr Kite Tours. We have observed, that throughout a Cocos trade wind cycle, there is sometimes a few days, 1 - 3 days, of no wind. This is usually about every 2 - 3 weeks, sometimes longer. In these downtimes, we now offer Stand up paddling so you can be on the water ALL the time.
