The Kite school is well organized. The location is nice, my teacher Penelope is a great person and teacher. I felt very safe. The everydays progress was phenomenal. I can definitely recommend the setting. Cheers Hannes

Penelope was very patient in explaining every move I had to make, she took the necessary time to review with me every step of the kite driving process so we could have a fun and safe environment for learning! Really looking forward to more classes with her in the future

I had always wanted to try kitesurfing, Penelope taught me very well and I would have loved to progress further with more lessons, but my timings prevented this. I will continue my kitesurfing journey and I look forward to going back to this great school

Taking kitesurfing lessons with Thalasea was an incredible experience. It's a very human school. The follow-up is very professional. Penelope (my teacher) was precise in her explanations, very involved and gave me confidence to sail. The equipment is impeccable. I highly recommend this school.
