The Reef Kite + Surf\u00a0<\/strong>center is located on Sandy Beach \u2013 St Lucia\u2019s best kitesurfing beach on the south-east coast of the island\u00a0\u2013 close to the town of Vieux Fort . The bay is unspoilt and uncrowded \u2026 every kitesurfer\u2019s dream.<\/p>\n

The Windsurfing &\u00a0 Kitesurfing Centre is located on the grounds of The Reef Beach Cafe<\/strong><\/a> in Vieux Fort, St. Lucia.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Our kitesurfing school offers lessons to suit\u00a0 all\u00a0 levels and abilities, so\u00a0whatever your goals might be \u2013 from simply learning how to pilot a kite to pulling off advanced tricks \u2013\u00a0the instructors at The Reef can guide you every step of the way.<\/p>\n

Additionally, an integral part of our lesson structure is a focus on teaching you to become an independent rider with the skills, knowledge and ability to handle situations that may arise once you start kiting on your own in other locations. You will be taught using high quality Cabrinha kites and equipment.<\/p>\n

We place a strong emphasis on safety, and all instruction\u00a0is carried out\u00a0within a sheltered environment with our safety boat on standby.<\/p>\n

When taking lessons, we provide all necessary equipment and safety gear. You will need to bring along your swimwear \u2013 sun cream and sunglasses are recommended (or they can be purchased in our shop).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> Kitesurfing is a sport which you can learn really quickly, because all the maneuvers can be simulated on dry land. It may look like a sport for top athletes, but in fact it\u2019s easy to learn for anyone with average ability. Of course, if you\u2019re already a windsurfer or wakeboarder or do any of the other board sports, then you\u2019ll take to kitesurfing even more readily \u2013 but it\u2019s not necessary to have any previous experience.<\/p>\n

We also offer kitesurfing equipment rental and have facilities for independent kiters wishing to use their own equipment. One popular option is our KiteEazy<\/a> package which offers a nice bundle of services and goodies which you can read about here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Beach loungers, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards are available for rent and some items of fashion, clothing and equipment are available for sale in our shop.<\/p>\n
