CUSTOMIZE YOUR TRIPIf the kitesurfing camp or kitesurfari does not appeal then why not customize your own kitesurfing trip. Zoco can provide accommodation, equipment hire (kitesurfing boards, sails, harnesses and kites) car hire and all the information you need to ensure a you get the most from your trip. Also we are now selling off all our 2004 kiteboards at super low prices, for more info. check out our 2nd hand equipment page.
A Zoco Boardriding Adventure can be designed around you, and your specific requirements. You can combine Surfing & Windsurfing or Kitesurfing & Surfing or any combination of these 3 boardriding disciplines. Just let us know what you want to do and we will try our utmost to make it happen.
CUSTOM COURSESWe offer a wide range of tuition, from beginner up to advanced. Although the kitesurf centre is located at an ideal kitesurfing beach, you are free to hire equipment and take it with you to other locations.
All courses are run by qualified instructors and the centers are VDWS and IKO recognised. This means you are guaranteed professional tuition with particular attention paid to your safety. As a recognised IKO Center it can issue the IKO Kiteboarder card which means your progress can be tracked and your tuition can be furthered at any recognised IKO center. There is also a very informative kiteboarding booklet available (cost 12 €). Below you'll find an outline of our kitesurfing courses.
EQUIPMENTAll the equipment is of the highest standard and complies to the safety standards laid down by the VDWS/IKO. For more detailled information on the equipment we use please see our equipment guide.
