COCOS (K) ISLANDS BEGINNER KITESURFING EXPERIENCE

Unique Holiday Fun!

Kitesurfing is one of the world’s fastest-growing adrenaline sports and will make its first appearance at the 2024 Olympic Games. So, why not get in on the action and have a go? Our 1-hour Kitesurfing Experience lesson is perfect for families who want to experience something new while on holiday, or for anyone who would love to see what the excitement is all about!

Play with a trainer kite on the beautiful “Kite Beach”. Watch it dip and loop and fly! Learn how to generate power as you maneuver the kite through the wind window. With kite flying skills under your belt, you will be able to progress to a power kite much sooner!

A trainer kite is a small, lightweight kite designed to be used as a training aid for learning to kitesurf. They are safer and easier to fly than a power kite and are a great tool in teaching basic kite flying skills and techniques. A trainer kite typically has two or three lines, and is controlled using a bar or handles.

Yes! Playing with a trainer kite is a safe and fun activity, suitable for the whole family. However, we do recommend kids be at least 8 years old.

Learning how to fly a trainer kite is safe and easy! And it’s a great first step to learning how to kitesurf!

WHAT PEOPLE THINK

Fantastic tour, professional quality staff who are constantly encouraging, sensation location with great wind and beautiful surroundings, great food, adventures to different locations, workshop clinics where you learn new stuff, everything you could hope for a kiting holiday. Highly recommend it. David, Melbourne.

I will go back to Cocos and I would do it with you rather than as an independent. The product including support, instruction and even camaraderie of your team and other kiters means that you leave with another 10 friends. And that is valuable to a lot of time poor people like myself.

Brett G., QLD Cocos Islands

A fabulous and fun trip to Cocos shared with a truly awesome and wonderful bunch of people. A thank you to everyone for making it so special, and especially to Ben and the Zephyr team for making my 10th trip to Cocos (with Zephyr) so memorable and absolutely first class in so many ways.

Hans P., VIC Cocos Islands

It’s been absolutely wicked, great weather, great wind and super flat water. The Magic Mile really is magic and the local people here are so nice. The tour so far could not be better.
