Cape Town is undoubtedly one of the best locations in the world to kitesurf, whatever your level.
Backdropped by Table Mountain, Blouberg’s pristine beaches stretch along the crystal blue Atlantic Ocean, lining up perfectly for supreme long-shore kiteboarding conditions when the summer trade winds come howling out of the South East.
Our new Open Ocean Kitesurf Center is located on the popular Big Bay beachfront, & we stock a comprehensive range of kitesurf & surf brands. We offer sales, rentals & IKO kitesurfing lessons from this center.
Our Open Ocean Kitesurf Academy runs lessons from both Blouberg, & also from Shark Bay, Langebaan where we are currently the only academy offering boat-assisted kiteboarding lessons.
