• 5Amazing!

  Had an amazing time kitesurfing with Explora Water Sports in Tarifa! We booked semi-private lessons, which were perfect since I was traveling with friends. You get lots of personal attention, but it’s also fun to share the experience and progress together. The instructors were super friendly, helpful, and professional, and they really made sure we felt safe and confident on the water. Highly recommend this school if you’re looking for quality lessons in a relaxed and positive atmosphere!

• 5One of the best trips with friends that is a must!

  After getting in touch with Gabri about two months before our trip to Tarifa, he helped me and my group of nine friends book kite lessons tailored to each of our levels, along with amazing accommodation right in the heart of Tarifa's old town. One thing we really appreciated was the flexibility throughout the week. We could easily adjust the number of hours or switch between group, semi-private, and private lessons depending on how we were progressing and what worked best for us. It was my first time ever kiting, and Julek was an incredible instructor. He was super clear, endlessly patient, and just as excited about our progress as we were. My friend and I took semi-private lessons, and within just three days we were already standing up on the board. By day four, we were covering long distances during the full 3-hour sessions. I definitely recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Tarifa. We’ll absolutely be back!

• 5Great kiteschool maximum fun!

  Na een aantal teleurstellende ervaringen toch nog een laatste poging gewaagd om te leren kite surfen. En wat een geluk dat we dit gedaan hebben! Wat een geweldige week samen met het team van Gabri! Dit is een kite school waar de klant centraal staat. Elke dag proberen ze, afhankelijk van de wind condities het best eruit te halen zodat je een maximale ervaring hebt. Met Oso hadden we een uistekende instructeur die elke dag opnieuw met veel geduld, passie en humor zijn lessen aanpaste aan onze progressie. Hij haalde er steeds het maximale uit zonder onze veiligheid en die van anderen uit het oog te verliezen. Explora Watersports Tarifa is een echet aanrader waar we zonder aarzelen terug zullen boeken. Bedankt voor de toffe week and keep the good work Gabri en team! After a number of disappointing experiences, we made one last attempt to learn kite surfing. And how lucky we were to have done this! What a great week together with Gabri and his team! This is a kite school where the customer is placed central. Every day, depending on the wind conditions, they try to get the best out of it so that you have a maximum experience. With Oso we had an excellent instructor who adapted his lessons to our progress every day with a lot of patience, passion and humor. He always got the most out of it without losing sight of our safety and those of others. Explora Watersports Tarifa is highly recommended and we will book back without hesitation. Thanks for the great week and keep the good work Gabri and team!

• 5Outstanding instructors - amazing progression!

  A friend of mine recommended me Explora and I have to say if you’re looking for a Kitesurfing school in Tarifa, don’t look any further and go with Explora! The quality of the instructors and the teaching is exceptional. They constantly monitor you and give you tips to improve after every run. The feeling of progression and being able to ride the kite better and better each time is wonderful and really thanks to the efforts of Gabri and his team. Whilst super professional on the beach and the water, they are also a bunch of super nice guys and create a friendly, relaxed and warm atmosphere. They gave me a lot of confidence and I would definitely go back to them when I go back to Tarifa!

About Tarifa

Tarifa is a walled white town at the southern tip of Spain, on the Strait of Gibraltar, known for wind, kitesurfing beaches and views of Morocco.

Tarifa stands at the southernmost point of mainland Spain and Europe, where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean in the Strait of Gibraltar, only about 14 km from Africa at the narrowest point. The old town is enclosed by Moorish walls and entered through the Puerta de Jerez, and the castle of Guzmán el Bueno, which began as a tenth-century Moorish fortress, overlooks the harbour.
