The instructors here consistently earn praise for their patience and skill at getting beginners up and riding quickly. Kevin, Elisa, Elizabeth, Lucas, Mason, and Aaron all get multiple shoutouts for breaking down complex water sports in ways that click, with reviewers mentioning they were controlling wing foils, efoiling, and kiteboarding within their first lessons. The teaching approach emphasizes safety without killing the fun, and instructors stay in the water alongside students offering real-time coaching and encouragement when people feel like giving up. Beyond the lessons, this is clearly a full-service operation with a well-stocked shop and knowledgeable staff who help customers find the right gear. People appreciate the honest communication about conditions (they'll tell you when it's not ideal for certain activities) and the genuine community vibe. Several reviewers mention coming back for additional sports after their first experience, and the shop handles everything from custom equipment recommendations to repairs. The professionalism and passion shine through, making it easy to see why people feel welcomed whether they're total beginners or experienced water sports enthusiasts.
Elisa was an incredible instructor! She had me winging on my first lesson. Thanks Elisa, I’ll be back soon!
