Erstklassige Kiteschule! Kompetente Instructors, super Organisation und kundenorientierter Service wie man es sich wünscht. Tolles Klientel auch und nettes Klima. Jeder packt mit an und nimmt einen Kite oder ein Board auch für andere mit runter ans Wasser, es herrscht gute und gelassene Stimmung. Wenn‘s losgeht, läuft alles wie am Schnürchen weil gute Vorbereitung und Kommunikation. Das wird unterschätzt, was für einen Unterschied es macht, ob man gehetzt und gestresst eine Session bzw. Stunde anfängt oder entspannt. Kennen wir leider auch gaaaanz anders von anderen Kite-Schulen. Wow! 🤩

The course done with the guys from the North Shore Sardinia went great, professionals and attentive to every detail with safety in mind. Course held in ideal conditions for learning to use the kite. Technique explained in detail and helps you gain self-confidence. The guys, in addition to being good instructors, immediately put you at ease and make the course pleasant, making you enjoy kiting to the full.

The best instructor and place to learn kitesurfing not just the knowledge and patience he has also the human being he is. He makes you feel on ease and that you can do it. Questions are answered patiently and yes I had a lot 😁. Their equipment is excellent and well mantained.

Amazing patience, care and support. Andrea is a very good and supportive instructor, he pushes to the level of pupil's aibility and ensures you achieve your max. We had a shared family course and I could see that he altered his way of supporting us depending on each person's aibility. Highly recommended

My first kitesurfing lesson with Andrea was an incredible experience! In just 6 hours, I learned so much thanks to his professionalism and kindness. I highly recommend taking a course with him. This was my first time in Sardinia, but it certainly won't be my last. On our next visit, we’ll definitely book another course with Andrea. I had the best time! Thank you, Andrea, not just for the lesson, but for being such a wonderful person. Keren 🩷
