All of our landboarding and kite surfing courses are based around and in Poole Harbour, Dorset which is one of the best locations in the country to learn kiting. It's the second largest natural harbour in the world after Sydney Harbour so there's plenty of space to learn. It's also predominantly nice and shallow and the water warms up nicely through the summer months (there's less man eating sharks here than Sydney too which is another bonus!).

Would highly recommend this to anyone - definitely suitable for anybody who wants a fun, new experience and fly some kites! Excellent instructors, very knowledgeable yet relaxed in their approach makes for a good day of learning where you’ll end up bodysurfing all over the place in Poole harbour! Highly recommended – thanks to Craig at GO AWOL for all his help.
