Kitesurfing holidays in South America

Remember how your favourite spot was 10-15-20 years ago? Or are you new to kitesurfing and want to learn in an uncrowded place with perfect conditions in warm Caribbean waters? Salinas del Rey is a new pearl of the Caribbean on the kitesurfer’s map. Recently discovered it’s already became a new hot spot hosting the GKA World Championship. But you still have an opportunity to experience an uncrowded magnificent spot with an all-day, everyday constant wind of 18-25 knots from December to the end of April. 

Salinas is still developing and just opening its treasures for kiters from all over the world, interested in all types of kiting. It is perfect for practising kite/wing wave, big air, freestyle, twin tip, foil and strapless – anything you can imagine you can kite here. From flat water for beginners to waves during the swell, kiters love the options and conditions to progress their skill sets, and explore new exciting spots while doing downwinds. 

KiteSurf Experience IKO centre is one of the first kite and wing schools in the area with IKO certificated instructors who speak multiple different languages. Being in Salinas for 10 years already, we are promoting and participating in the evolution of our kite home and we are very happy to welcome more and more kiters to share the joy of riding in our conditions. We provide beginner to advanced lessons with a radio system, exiting downwinds, rental gear from North, repair service, transfer service. 

We offer several accommodation options – from private bungalows and bungalows for groups to co-living with like-minded people. In our space KOKOHAU we provide healthy breakfasts, yoga or pilates classes and any additional activities and services to help you enjoy Salinas to the fullest.

The Beekite Village Kitesurf Center is located in the small and dreamy fishing village of Praiado Macapà. We have been here for almost 10 years. Due to the beautiful and varied spot, Macapà is enjoying increasing popularity in the kite world year after year. Our centre and pousada is located right on the beach with an area of 5000 square metres. In 2020 we expanded our station with 11 beautiful beach chalets so you can stay right at the spot. All chalets have a small terrace and can sleep up to four people. We serve breakfast, consisting of lots of fresh fruits, delicious shakes, freshly baked bread and cold cuts in our breakfast area, also built in 2020. There is a small beach bar and restaurant at the kite stations where you can get fresh fruit shakes, açaí, fruit salad and dishes at lunchtime.

The Beekite Village Kitesurf Center offers courses, rental and storage right on the spot.

Oasis Kite Trip design tailor-made kite trips on the northeast coast of Brazil, mainly between Fortaleza and São Luís. For many people this area is the best kite destination in the world for several reasons: constant wind, flat water lagoons, mile upon mile of deserted beaches, deltas where you can kite between mangroves, and spots like the incredible Lençóis Maranhenses, a field of dunes filled with rain water. Oasis Kite Trip’s philosophy is “more than just kiting” as guests are encouraged to enjoy everything Brazil offers, mixing exclusive kiting spots with unique nature and local experiences.

One of the worlds best places for gentle Kiteboarding.
Gentle winds – shallow sea – warm waters – safe and secure – long wide beach – low density of kiters. Great for the whole family – kiters and non-kiters alike. Safe for kids.
We are especially set up for kiters – loaner boards (from small to Doors), compressed air on the beach, self-launch and landing posts, kite storage.
And on those low wind days we have stand-up-paddle boards, ocean kayaks, snorkel gear
