Full description
Forget 'follow your heart': follow the wind - it doesn't miss a beat.
And trust me, if it brings you to the Capoliveri beach, it is no accident: this is where your windsurfing adventure begins!
During this 1 hour and 15 minute group lesson, you will discover how to stand on a board, how to handle the sail without letting it pull you down... and above all how to have fun right away, even if you are starting from scratch!
An instructor will always be with you and the rest of the group, ready to correct you, motivate you and make you shout, "More!"
What we will do
The rendezvous is at the selected time at the meeting point in Capoliveri (LI), on theIsland of Elba, where the beach has sandy bottoms and calm waters.
We will be welcomed by our instructor, who will guide us step by step through our first windsurfing experience.
After a quick 5-10 minute introduction on the beach, we will start with some theory: we will learn to recognise the parts of the sail and board, understand where the wind comes from and how to use it to our advantage.
After that, we'll get into the water: we'll go through 1 hour of practice where we'll try to set the sail, keep our balance, and maybe even tack! Theinstructor will follow us directly into the water with a windsurf board or from the boat, depending on the size of the group.
At the end of the lesson we will return to the shore and share laughs, falls and successes directly on the beach. The experience will last about 1 hour and 15 minutes in total.
