Outer Hebrides. We know the best, and safest spots for our
customers to try. The Isle of Lewis boasts some of the best
conditions in the UK for kite surfing, from lagoons to serious
waves. Consistent winds and clean turquoise waters are a kite
surfers paradise.
We have equipment and wetsuits available as well
as support from our Thundercat RIB. In 2007 we are offering
kite safaris taking you to locations only accessible by boat,
making it likely you will be the first to kite surf off some
of the uninhabited islands of the Outer Hebrides.
Kite Surfing in the Hebrides has the same effect
on everybody.
The waters around the islands are not only clean
but relatively warm. The Gulf stream keeping the sea temperature
up higher than most coastal waters of the U. K. Local advice
is a must for visiting kite surfers, some beaches have strong
tidal currents and rips so get in touch with us before exploring
the wonders here.
Empty beaches and flat water lagoons and Lochs
offer a perfect place to learn and enhance your skills. We also
offer IKO/BKSA instruction.
Kite Surfing doesn't just have to happen in the
summer. The seas are at their warmest later in the year and
strong winter winds offer challenging conditions for the experienced
rider. Special offers are available on accommodation during
the Autumn and winter. We have top quality winter wetsuits available
to hire as well as the latest in bow/SLE kites for our guests.
