I watched the kites from resort and became mesmerized! After a couple days my wife and I gathered the courage to inquire about it. Oscar and Zoe made... read more us feel so comfortable that we both signed up for lessons. It was so much fun discovering how to fly a kite and invigorating to experience the power of the kite and control its flight. We certainly forgot about all our life's problems for the hours that we did this. It was the best part of our Aruba Vacation. This school made the process so simple and safe. I believe ANYONE can do this with just a little patience and guidance with proper instruction. You do not have to be really strong, athletic or a risk taker. Kite surfing is actually very relaxing. I felt very safe as the lessons progressed due to the shallow reef in the area they are located. You can literally stand up and walk back to shore. I would feel comfortable letting my kids get instruction at this school because of how they set up the lessons, with flat water and consistent wind. They are very concerned and aware of safety. They also have the best gear to make discovery and learning fast and easy. They also have the latest advanced gear available for experienced riders and tricks. They have so many options available, that I cannot say enough about this school. I am very satisfied with my time invested here. We experienced so much fun and relaxation learning to kite surf that we came home and are enrolling in more classes at home and ordered a kite and gear. I had no intention of kite surfing on this Aruba vacation but after discovering and experiencing their guidance, I think this is an activity our family is going to LOVE! Kite surfing can be very relaxing or thrill inducing. You have complete control. Give it a try! …

  Great family owned and operated establishment. They really understand how to teach kiteboarding, and they do it with a great positive attitude.

My boyfriend and I took the duo classes and we both... read more learned how to control the kite, make a water start to both sides and safely get the kite up and running. The instructors are amazing, funny and communicate very clearly on what to do and how to improve. Also to plan on the classes the communication was efficient and the instructors were flexible.

  In June 2021, I booked a private 4 lesson (2 hours per day) package with Aruba Kitesurfing School. My instructor was Carlos and he was excellent (and very patient). The... read more first day was spent with a trainer kite and a small kitesurfing kite. The second day was spent in the water and mostly focused on kite control and body dragging. The 3rd and 4th days were spent with the board and kite in the water and learning to ride on the board. After 4 days, I was comfortable with kite control (mostly), water starting in both directions, riding (albeit not that pretty) and confident in terms of all of the safety features of controlling the kite. At the end of 4 days, candidly, I still spent a lot of time in the water and was not kiting upwind consistently, but am confident now to go out on my own safely and know I'll continue to improve on my own with more practice. I would recommend Aruba Kitesurfing School to anyone wanting to learn to kitesurf. The team is great and very welcoming. The water in Aruba is warm and the kite area is shallow, which make it a great place to learn. …

  If you are looking for an authentic Aruban kite surfing experience, you need to meet the team at Aruba Kitesurfing School. I reached out online prior to my trip... read more to Aruba and got some friendly feedback from Zoe who also was my instructor on day 1. Zoe helped me progress quickly to body dragging while controling the kite on day on. On day 2 I had the opportunity to add new skills with Carlos and managed to get up on the board a few times. On day 3, Oskar taught me more essentials and I had even more fun. Collectively the team at AKS was a blast to work with. They also provided beach chairs and the perfect spot for my family to watch and enjoy the Fisherman's Huts beach area while I took my lessons. …
