Kiteboarding For Beginners – Yay!
We know how intimidating it can be when you are looking into kiteboarding for beginners. First of all, it can be dangerous if you don’t take kitesurfing lessons from an experienced professional. Secondly, it ain’t cheap. At Cabarete Kite Point Kiteboarding School, we do our very best to make sure you feel safe and get the best bang for your buck.
How Long Do Kite Lessons For Beginners Take?
That’s a loaded question! Most beginners need somewhere around 9 hours of kiteboarding lessons in our experience. Of course, that is, give or take. You will find that some schools offer a beginner kite lesson package for 6 hours, and some offer a beginner kite lesson package for 10 hours. The good news is, at Cabarete Kite Point, you only pay for what you use. So if you learn in 6 hours (like a boss), you only pay for 6 hours. We like to keep it as simple as possible.
*For the record, most people can handle 2-3 hours of lessons per day.
I’m Not Fit Enough For 9 Hours of Kite Lessons.
Shut your dirty mouth! Our oldest beginner was in his 70s, so we just aren’t taking any excuses from you. You don’t have to be young or fit to take lessons. And NO you don’t have to have great upper body strength either. You know what you need to know when it comes to taking kite lessons? How to swim. You need to know how to swim. The end. We will help you sort the rest.

HOW MUCH DO BEGINNER KITESURFING LESSONS COST?
- All lessons include kite, board, harness, and all safety gear. If you bring your own equipment you receive 20% off.
- There is no need to stress choosing a package. We charge you at the end of your lessons, so you only pay for what you use.
- You may feel more comfortable hiring an assistant for a few hours after your lessons are complete. An assistant costs $15 USD/hour. We suggest using assistants affiliated with schools because they have been vetted and you know what you are getting and exactly how much it costs.
