Kitesurfing Costa Rica

As a pioneer of kiteboarding in Costa Rica, where I’ve been privileged to teach the sport for nearly 20 years, I can recommend no better place for chasing the same passion. Whether venturing out for beginner lessons or to practice advanced moves, there’s nothing like sharing the warm waters with sea turtles, dolphins, tuna, pelicans and occasionally, whales, in what is widely regarded as Central America’s premier kiteboarding location.

Those unfamiliar with kiteboarding may be fascinated to know it’s a tri-dimensional activity — you can ride, jump and fly without being a pro. This is achievable after a few weeks of practice if you want to push your limits. For those wanting to push even further, imagine these kiteboarding records. In 40-knot winds, one jump reached 28.6 meters high with an airtime of 8.5 seconds. Some kiteboarders have exceeded 55-knot speeds, outpacing large trimarans to become the fastest wind-powered crafts in the water!
