Ich habe einen Kurs über 20h bei Javier und seinem Team gemacht und rundherum begeistert!

Hier bekommt man Qualität gepaart mit einer tollen Atmosphäre, einem idealen Spot für Beginner zu einem unschlagbaren Preis. Zudem lernt man mit dem neuesten und... read more besten Equipment auf dem Markt (North 2018).

Das Schulungskonzept ist standardisiert und intelligent modular aufgebaut, so dass man sehr schnell Fortschritte macht, aber immer ein sicheres Gefühl bewahrt.

Der Spot ist windsicher, dennoch sind insbesondere während der Woche kaum Kiter im Wasser, so dass man sich nie in die Quere kommt.

Klasse Erfahrung, muchisimas gracias a Javier, Mike y los otros instructores!!! read less  - 11/06/18

I spent several weeks with Javier and his crew. He had the patience to teach me all about kitesurfing 🙂 And he really knows what he's doing. Safety first! He speaks Englisch fluently, but is also willing to let you... read more practise your Spanish 😉 He is also using the newest North-Kite gear (2018), which is great to learn with. His prices are more than fair and also is he a great guy to have a beer or two with in the evenings after the sessions at Donkey Den, where all kiters and visitors of the lovely and relaxed village of Santa Marianita hang out. Just an awesome vibe. Best place to get addicted to Kitesurfing. 😉 read less  - 09/04/18

Great lessons in a beautiful beach town Learning to Kite was an amazing experience and one of the coolest sports I have learned. Javier is a great instructor with great gear, the town is quiet with lots of beach to learn on with great wind.

Highly recommend  - 07/04/18

Kite Ecuador is the perfect place to learn, develop or perfect your Kiting. I spent two weeks kiting here and went from standing on the beach with a Kite to launching off waves! Javier is enthusiastic and not only runs... read more a first rate school, but creates an amazing atmosphere at the school. The beers are cold and it is a great place to hang out. The wind is reliable and even when it shifts to light wind or stronger wind they have a huge variety of top notch equipment so you can maximize your time.

Communication leading up to my arrival was incredibly positive and prompt, with detailed directions and accommodation recommendations.

Aside from amazing kiting you also have the chance to kite with wildlife as you often will see whales and I was lucky enough to kite alongside a Whale Shark for half an hour one day!

Santa Marianita is as a chilled out spot which has the perfect vibes for a kite vacation!

I could ramble on and on about how incredible Kite Ecuador is but I'll finish by saying if you want to learn to Kite in an amazing spot with the best gear and superb people, then the obvious choice is Kite Ecuador with Javier, Mike and the gang!

Shout out to Mike for the excellent guidance and the volunteers for the endless support and positive vibes! read less  - 15/11/18
