I definitely recommend the kite school! Martin explains everything clearly and calmly. Also the water that is practiced on is ideal for learning.

I highly recommend this course. The teacher Martin has so much experience and what a nice guy! He will give you confidence right away and is very good to teach his passion. We even end up playing guitar at the end together and share stories. What a day!

I had two amazing sessions with Martin. He is a very experienced and skilled kitesurfing instructor. Thanks two his good material I could easily change the kite size according to the wind conditions. Martin does his work with passion and you can learn a lot from him.

Had an absolute blast learning from Martin. Could not recommend him enough. He is so genuinely passionate about the sport and it shows! I was a bit anxious about safety to begin with but he teaches on a shallow lake that allows you to learn in a very safe environment while still having the best fun. His way of teaching emphasises feel and good technique from the beginning which hopefully will set me up long term. Cannot wait for my second lesson tomorrow 🤩🤙

I mean it when I say you would be doing yourself a disservice to learn to kite anywhere else in the world. Martin's instruction coupled with the beautiful location that is Boreen Point, it had to be one of the best experiences of my life. Two full days and I was up and running, and now I can hire kite gear anywhere I go. Can't recommend enough.
