Adventure Sports

Kite surfing

Adventure sport that combines the sensations of wind and surf. In Lanzarote favorable climate conditions can be found on the beaches of Famara, in the northwest of the island, and Guacimeta, in the east. Initiation in this sport is not difficult, but it is advisable to do it under the guide of a qualified tutor to guarantee one’s own safety while practicing the sport. There are several schools on the island that offer beginner’s courses.
