Very Highly recommended - They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks Definately not true for flow kite team, whom got two of us 50+ riding in few days! Very professional and... read more at same time easy going school, and special thanks to Carina for amazing instruction, we felt safe at all times and it was lots of fun! Coming back here soon! Highly recommended.

  One of the first things we have learned about learning kitesurfing is you have to be patient. During our stay we had to be very patient with the winds as... read more it was a week with very light winds only. Moreover you have to be patient with yourself while practicing. For that it is difficult if you and your instructor are both impatient while teaching. The instructors are highly experienced when it comes to teaching due to the high amount of students they’ve already brought on the board. Unfortunately it is not helpful to use the same methods and expecting every student to do the same mistakes. As you can clearly see from me and my boyfriend, who booked the nine lessons group session together. While I was struggeling with the easy exercises like handling of the kite in the air my boyfriend was able to stand on the board on the second day. Instead of looking for my needs and really seeking for my mistakes I had the feeling of hearing standard phrases about the steering. Kitesurfing is a dangerous sport and therefore safety should always be the first priority. As we did just continue with the program rather than trying to steer the kite in a confident manner I was not feeling safe on the water anymore. After the second day I therefore decided to cancel the third day to give my boyfriend the time to improve his skills in a private lesson with our instructor Martin. As no one ever questioned my cancellation or talked to me in person afterwards I use this review as well as a little feedback for my instructor.
In sum we would recommend booking the private sessions. We think you can learn definitely more in those ones as instructors should be able to focus on the needs of the trainee. Also bring a lot of patience and time (there might be calm days where you can’t kite) and cross the fingers for good winds than you can definitively have a great time there!

  We had a blast last year!
We brought some personal gear to Sicily. We did some refreshing lessons to get more confident with kiting and the spot.

The lessons... read more were good and on point, really good value for money! You can rent/use everything you need. And it is no problem to partly use your own gear. After you rent a kite/board you are free to swap equipment if the conditions change. You are allowed to use their facilities and help for a small fee if you're only using your own gear.

The spot is good. you launch the kites within 15m of the lagoon. The lagoon is huge, shallow, salty and a bit muddy (with plants) but this doesn't influence the kiteboarding.
You can partly trust windfinder, however, the wind speed is often higher than predicted!

We've enjoyed our stay last year and we're currently checking if we'll go to Stagnone again. If yes, we will definitely go back to Timi and Giorgi if we are in the area!

Thanks guys! (Arjan & Willeke NL)
