Full description
Learn to ride the waves in the direction of the wind, get closer to one of the most popular water sports of all time, and experience the sea from an exciting new perspective: that of windsurfing.
Our experienced instructors will take you on an introductory windsurfing course, starting with wind theory and ending with practical tests of starting and sailing.
You will have 6 hours of lessons to be divided into 4 sessions agreed with the instructor, on the most beautiful beaches in Salento, from Ugento to Gallipoli. We are waiting for you!
What we will do
The windsurfing course consists of 4 sessions of 1 ½ hours each. Lessons will take place individually or in mini-groups of up to 3 people and can be held in Marina di Ugento or Gallipoli. The two locations are only a few kilometres apart and one or the other will be chosen depending on the participant's needs, the instructors' availability and, above all, the wind conditions.
Over the course of the three lessons, a learning programme will be implemented that aims to teach the student the basic techniques of windsurfing, from theory to practice. The basics of recognising winds and currents will be learnt and exercises will be performed on land to immediately acquire correct positions and motor patterns to be replicated in the water.
After the propaedeutic part, you will enter the sea to begin to gain confidence with board and sail, start feeling the waves under your feet and make your first attempts at starting and sailing.
Who it is aimed at
This activity is at an easy level and is open to everyone from 10 years of age. No previous experience is required; it is sufficient to be in good health and have good aquatic skills.
