The best learning spot on the Belgian coast
Thanks to the nearby port of Zeebrugge, we’re in a unique spot with minimal waves and currents!
In Belgium, southwesterly winds dominate (85%), often bringing significant waves and strong currents. This makes learning to kitesurf much harder at other locations.
So don’t hesitate — make it easier on yourself and start your adventure with us in Duinbergen (Knokke-Heist)!
