6 days of as much kitesurfing, or learning to kitesurf as you can handle in Tarifa. Most kitesurf courses limit you to a specific amount of time learning to kitesurf often as little as 3 hours a day. At Tantrum Kitesurf we offer unlimited hours instruction so as long as the conditions allow and you have the energy, we'll be down the beach, getting you on the board. We're often teaching at the beach for as long as 9 hours a day, that's 3 days worth of courses at a regular kitesurfing school in one day, so you can imagine how fast you'll progress. If that seems a bit much don't worry we take things entirely at your pace!
Over the summer months (June - Sept) Tantrum Kitesurf have a rescue boat at our disposal. This means we can operate on beaches in Tarifa where it wouldn't be possible without a boat. This gives us the unrivalled ability to train you on glass flat water whenever the levante (easterly wind) is blowing...and it blows for most of the summer! This alone massively improves your chances of getting up, riding and learning to kitesurf.
At Tantrum Kitesurf we don't think a conventional 3 hour a day course is enough to really progress at the speed you want to. Often you end up driving all the way to the beach only to be told that there's no wind...again? Or while taking lessons you'll find that every time just as you're about to really crack that next move, your time is up and you have to wait until the next lesson, possibly weeks away, when there might not be any wind...again! Learning to Kitesurf like this can be a long and frustrating process which is why we have developed our Unlimited Hours Instruction system. Longer at the beach each day and much more time on the kite guarantees that you learn much, much quicker than with a conventional 3 - 4 hour course.
This method of instruction ends up saving you time and money in the long run. Rather than having to spend time organising lessons each week, then driving to the location only to be told there's no wind or even when there is wind and you spend every other weekend doing lessons, often you'll start a lesson and spend the first half of the lesson getting back to the level you were at when the last lesson finished, wasting money and time. Instead you can learn to kitesurf in one week with everything taken care of and be sure you'll crack it in one week - you'll ultimately learn quicker, cheaper and with a lot less frustration than would be possible otherwise. This means you've got more money to spend on your first kitesurfing holiday and much more time to plan it!
We make your kitesurf trip easy by arranging your accommodation at our spacious apartment in the centre of Tarifa. Here you can enjoy great views over the Straits of Gibraltar onto Morocco and the friendly atmosphere of living with your fellow students with the convenience of being 5 mins walk from the bars and restaurants of the old town and 2 mins walk from the beach. As if that wasn't enough we'll also take you to the beach each day and can even transfer you from the airport. What's more if there's no wind we take you to the local wakeboard cable park to perfect your board skills and further reduce your learning time.
Tarifa has 300 days of wind a year and just as much sun, temperatures rarely drop below t-shirt level, even in the depths of winter and the wind blows all year round, so if you want to learn or practice to kitesurf Tarifa has it all and you'll be hard pushed to find a better, more accessible location.
Due to our incredible commitment to get you you up and riding successfully by the time you leave, if the forecast predicts that there will be no wind in Tarifa or the surrounding area for 3 - 4 days during your time here we will search for areas further afield such as Portugal or Almeria and have the ability to move you and our entire school there for the days concerned. If you choose this option you will incur an extra fee which is dependent on how far we have to go but virtually guarantees that even if the wind here in Tarifa throws us a wide ball (which it does occassionally) we can keep on teaching you to kitesurf, wheras with any other school you'd be left to sip coffee in the local cafés.
At Tantrum Kitesurf we don't believe that when the course is over we should just say goodbye and never see you again. Our after course support is famous as being the best in the business, once you've finished your course with us if you have any questions or problems related to kitesurfing, equipment, technique or holiday destinations just get in touch and we'll help you any way we can.
Included in the price of every course:
Courses start every day and can be completely tailored to your needs.
If your already kitesurfing and simply want somewhere to stay with other kitesurfers in a fun atmosphere and get taken to the beach every day, get in touch, we can sort something out for you aswell.
We believe we provide a great service and are prepared to put our money where our mouth is, so although we do ask you to pay an initial deposit to reserve your place on the course, we will not ask for further payment until Day 3 of the course. If you're not happy with any aspect of the course in those first 3 days and we can't fix it to your satisfaction we will give you your deposit back and not ask for another penny, we will however, help you find another kitesurf school in Tarifa that better suits your needs. We are so confident in our teaching methods and level of service that we stand behind this guarantee 100%.
