The feeling
You sleep in small fishing villages, eat the fish that came in that morning, and kite across lagoons that are hard to describe in photos. It's a holiday, but it feels like a story you'll keep telling.

Had an awesome first lesson with Fred at Daniella beach in the stunning Floripa. As a newbie to flying kites, handling one of this size was daunting and I was nervous, but the lesson was run so smoothly that it built the confidence in me to handle the open waters alone in the first lesson. Fred was calm and methodical with every part of the lesson, kept it light and informative, and the equipment was good quality. If you're an English speaker it's not an issue, Fred speaks fluent English. Can't wait for the next lesson!
