Great experience Although we didn’t have luck with the weather, our instructor managed to teach the basics of kitesurfing. It was a great experience, and would definitely do it next time when we are in Tarifa! Recommended!:)

Great experience! Wayuu people are super cool! The classes were well organised and funny. Our group was separated by mini-groups based on the level, so everyone felt comfortable. We had a great time together while kitesurfing, dinner or nights out! Instructors gave all required equipment, information, advices and support during classes. So, next time on Tarifa I will definitely join Wayuu!

École de kitesurf au top ! Très bonne école de kitesurf! J’ai suivi 4 cours individuels de 2h00, qui m’ont permis de bien comprendre les sensations du kitesurf et m’ont surtout donné l’envie de continuer. Professeurs très à l’écoute, qui respectent le rythme des élèves tout en les incitant à se dépasser. Je me suis sentie en totale confiance. Je recommande !

Lovely, welcoming and highly skilled team. Perfect for beginners We really enjoyed the kite lessons by Wladimir and the whole Wayüu crew. You really feel that the team is really experienced and we as beginners always felt safe around them. When they see that you progress fast they let you advance quickly as well.

Se nota su pasión por el Kitesurf, además de que son unos grandísimos profesionales. Sin duda repetiré con ellos la próxima vez que vuelva a Tarifa ya que han conseguido que quiera aficionarme a este deporte. Gracias por todo!
