Our center was stablished in 1988 as a windsurfing center on the small fishing village of Corralejo Fuerteventura, since then it’s grown and developed with the city and its tourism to establish itself as a world renowned watersports center, we are conveniently located on the beach and we offer rental services and courses in windsurf, kitesurf, surf, body board and SUP (stand up paddle).

 

Considering the long period of our experience in these sports and Fuerteventura’s perfect sailing and surfing conditions we are able to provide a unique experience to our clients. What makes us stand out from the other schools is our very effective communication in various languages, patience, friendly atmosphere and a safe learning environment. Each of us has a different specialization including freeride, freestyle, new school, wave riding and racing. Our certified instructors teach in English, German, Italian, Spanish and French. We have something to offer all ages, levels and conditions.

 

Besides the surf activities we offer bodyboarding and catamaran sailing. We also provide a wide range of accommodation options from great value surf hostels to private villas. That are situated in proximity to both the beach and the city center with bars, restaurants and shopping mall.

 

The best months for practicing kitesurf or windsurfing in Fuerteventura are: March, April, May, June July, August, September, November. This is when the sea tends to be flat and the wind consistent. During the winter months (December, January, February) it can become too wavy and though it might be good on the occasional day it cannot be guaranteed. But the winter months giving us best wave surfing conditions.

THE ACTIVITIES

Flag Beach where we have lessons is a 400m long bay with a deep water reef 200m offshore. The wind is mostly northeast trade wind and usually picks up in the afternoon. Therefore the beach is good for the beginners in the morning and for intermediates to advanced later in the day. Flag Beach is mainly suitable for intermediate-advanced surfers, for our beginners we have a perfect teaching lagoon with shallow, flat waters just 20 minutes away from the Flag beach. The air temperature is very mild and ranges from 21-28C, water temperature is between 18 and 24C.

We offer following Windsurf Activities:

1 day Beginner – Starts 4 times a week, run on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, Monday at 10:00 am and aims at giving you a taste of windsurfing.

By the end of that session you will do some board balancing on water.  On day 2 and 3, you will spend 3 – 4 hours on the water learning to sail across the wind, sail up wind, tack (turning into the wind) and steering. 

At the end of this course you should be at the level to take your Level 1 certificate and that you can do with us as well.

All this will happen with supervision and support of your instructor. In the next step the board is added. In case you enjoy it and want to learn more you should opt for 5 day beginner course or more.

Once this has been completed we go straight into the water lesson which is again, dependent on your level, with the instructor by your side until you are capable and safe to be left alone to practice.  Each additional day you practice straight in the water and straight on the board.
