5 days kite camp for beginners (VDWS Level 0-3) and advanced (Level 4+)

Learn to kite safely in our 5-day kite camp in South Holland from April to October, always from Monday to Friday.
In the large shallow area of Oostvoorne you will learn all the important basics of kitesurfing in practice and theory in 5 days.

2 days of kitesurfing course and 3 days of free practice with our equipment pool
including overnight stays and all required material, full board and VDWS theory seminar & kite license.

The kitesurfing courses take place for groups of a maximum of 4 participants, adapted to the respective level.

Beginners and advanced surfers are of course welcome in our 5-day kitesurf camp. Advanced means that you have already taken a course before and have reached level 4.

For more advanced kiters (VDWS level >=4) this year we are offering a kite camp without training, only with supervised kiting. During supervised kiting you can certainly pick up a few tips from our kite instructors. It is important that you spend a lot of time on the kite. And if it doesn’t work out, you can also book private lessons on site at short notice.

The arrival is on your own and should be done on Monday by around 9.30 a.m. Alternatively, you can arrive the evening before; you can book an additional overnight stay when you register. Departure can be planned flexibly on Sunday depending on the wind. You are welcome to extend your stay with us spontaneously if we still have free places.

We speak German, English and Dutch. Course language depends on the group composition.

At the beginning of the kite camp you will receive a wetsuit and the harness incl. the leash, which you will keep in your care for the duration of the camp so that we don’t have to put everything together for you every day.

In the case of a long journey, we recommend that you arrive the day before and, if necessary, leave later.

I have done a kitesurfing course before. Can I still take part in the kitesurf camp?

Of course you can also participate. Depending on which level you have already reached, we adapt the course to your needs. For advanced kiters we offer the possibility of radio training with BB Talking radio equipment.

Someone wants to accompany me to the camp but does not want to take part in the kite surfing (course). Is that also possible?

Accompanying persons are welcome. Accommodation and meals can also be booked individually with us. Kitesurfing equipment can of course also be rented individually.

What happens if there is no wind?

It happens that we have no wind. On the one hand, we have the voucher regulation for this: You will receive all content that cannot be carried out as a voucher, so that you can come back at any time and catch up on the course/practice days. On the other hand, there is always something to experience: We offer surfing courses and SUP courses for camp participants at reduced rates, the surrounding beaches invite you to chill and be active, bicycles can be rented to explore the area.

When is the best time of the season to attend the kitesurf camp?

Indeed a very common question. However, not easy to answer.

Value for money is best in the off-season, ie April through June, and September. Im Frühjahr sind die Tage lang und die Sonne wärmt von oben, das Wasser ist noch etwas frischer. In summer it is warm, the beach invites you to stay, even in the evenings with a campfire. It’s still warm in September, but the days are getting noticeably shorter.

It’s really hard to say when the wind is at its best. Overall, the statistics for our spot are good and because we have our camp close to the spot, we are ready to go quickly and flexibly as soon as the wind picks up.

From southern wind directions to south-west to west and north-west wind, the conditions here are ideal for kiting. But the north-east wind that occurs very often is also ideal for training at our spot.

I have another question. May I ask you?

Of course, the quickest way to discuss all questions is to give us a quick call. We can also be reached via email and Whatsapp.
