Kids Windsurfing

This windsurfing lesson has been designed for 2 kids or a parent and child sailing together.

Give your kids the chance to experience the excitement of windsurfing in a safe, supportive environment designed just for teens. If you want to see what other levels of windsurfing lessons we run, then check out our introduction page to windsurfing.

We focus on building confidence and teaching the right techniques from the very start, so your child develops strong skills and good habits that will help them progress quickly.

Each lesson is kept fun and engaging, while still covering the essentials of balance, steering, and sail control. To make learning even easier, every student uses a BBTalkin headset – a two-way Bluetooth device that lets us give instant encouragement and clear instructions while they’re on the water.

Helpful Information & kids Lesson Details

As parents, its good to know the details of any activity your kids are going to be involved in so we’ve answered a few questions below.

when do we run kids windsurfing lessons?

Most of our kids windsurfing lessons run in spring and summer, but we can run them any time of year as long as the weather plays ball.

We prefer a slightly lesser wind strength for the children as it doesn’t tire them out so quickly and as with all of our beginner lessons we need a high tide so have a few limitations.

We can provide wetsuits if we’re sailing in the colder months, but it is better if you have your own to make sure they fit perfectly.

we provide the perfect kit for kids lessons

Our boards and sails are all well suited to kids. Small 3mtr rigs and stable boards along with buoyancy aids.

It’s important that the sails are bgi enough to provide power, but not heavy so the children find them heavy to handle, which is why we have an age limit on the kids lessons.

Where do we teach the kids lessons?

Safety is top priority with all of our lessons and our kids sessions even more so.

Heading into Prinsted Bay in the Chichester Harbour, gives parents and the instructors plenty of viewing poins, whilst the kids can always sail and land safely, around teh bay, even if they’re just getting a bit tired.
