Our kitesurf school spot is a big lagoon very close to Lagos. Depending on the tides the warm water is between knee and shoulder deep making it easy to learn the basics of kiteboarding. The “Nortada” the Portuguese north wind gets accelerated by the surrounding landscape which allows wind speed up to 20 knots while other parts of the Algarve are calm. This is the reason the PKRA (the Kiteboarding Pro Tour) stops here once per year. We take our clients by boat to an island in the middle of the lagoon. This place offers steady wind and lots of room for maximum safety and perfect learning conditions. Beginners to pros love the flat, warm water around the island.
