Lilian Simon: I booked spontaneously a one to one class with Jhon (colombian pro kiter that speaks good english)The class was awesome, I learned a lot in 7hours. Jhon is very pedagogic and helped with all necessary basics.When the storm came i could not finish the class, so I received a refund for the hours I did not took.Everything was very easy to plan, organize, and the class itself (even if I drink a lot of seawater xD)The price is way below standards for this quality.I can definitely recommend the class with Jhon!

sebastian porras: Positive:Quality

Andrea R.: I had a great experience with Nicoletta and Felipe. They are super friendly, both speak English and give great instructions to learn the basics of kite boarding. Their location is easy to find on the beach, just look for the giant black Ozone tent. Def recommend!

Philipp Mettler: Nomad Kitesurf Colombia ist weitaus die beste Kitesurfschule in der Region und sehr empfehlenswert! Gerne wieder!

Sandra Leite: The best place to learn kitesurfing and chill at the beach in Cartagena. The school is run by a lovely and very professional Swiss/Colombian couple. They are both very helpful and flexible. The instructors are fun too and focus on the individual needs and safety. And the morning SUP session with breakfast is a perfect way to start a day! Thanks for everything to the whole crew of Nomad and hope to see you again soon.

Manja Kalg: Super liebe Leute, gut organisiert, top Angebote, chillige Location.Ich war bereits 2x dort und werde auch bald wieder vorbeischauen. Vielen Dank für alles Ihr Lieben :* see you soon

Andrés Guevara: The best area to practice kite surfing in Cartagena de Indias, it is also the only school with international IKO accreditation, but above all the best atmosphere to spend a day at the beach in its beach bar, good vibes, good music and the best host Felipe. .. super RECOMMENDED

Marvin Wittwer: Got really good information. Helpful and friendly staff 😊 definitely recommend it!

Olivia Jackson: First things first, the breakfast was delicious! We especially enjoyed trying the jugo de tomate de árbol. The paddling itself was so much fun! It was my first time ever trying it, so definitely don’t feel like you have to be experienced in order to participate. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a unique beach experience in Cartagena.

Jhon Villalobos: Excellent attention ☺️☺️

Taira Pintro: Had an amazing time paddle boarding during the sunset. Andy was an amazing and informative instructor. He was patient and even told us some history about the city in both Spanish and e globs while we paddled. Would definitely recommend to everybody, and will be coming back for the next water adventure

Arturo García: The best, m

Thierry Baudry: Superbe centre multisport (windsurf, kayaks, wingfoil, paddle, etc...) dirigé par un champion de windsurf et de wingfoil. Super ambiance, bar sympa avec pizzas et cévichés. Le centre est directement sur le spot de kitesurf ou Roger vous aidera à gréer et lever votre matériel. Une super découverte d'un endroit où l'on aime rester à boire un verre entre nouveaux amis après les sessions.

Andres Gil: A good place to do activities, the guides are excellent at what they do, they make the activities very enjoyable, 100% recommended

Arsa Longa: I had wonderful experience with windspot, especially with their famous surfing instructor andy! andy is lovely instructor, very patient and considerate. he was teaching my husband and myself few times and it was so much fun. moreover inspired by small successes I also tried out paddling during sunset. it was so incredibly beautiful, definitely one of the highlights of my stay in cartagena ❤️I highly recommend the place if you are searching for water activities and especially strongly suggest to get in touch with andy. he will make your caribbean experience definitely a highlight.he is also very gifted photographer and was also kind enough to click some pics during our lessons. so I have plenty of beautiful captures to share with family and friends. big thanx and will be looking forward to coming back to cartagena for more surfing with you!

Roland Esnis: After discussing with them on the phone, took a cab and went there on purpose on a windy day. A couple of guys there told me it was closed, although it was obviously not (the door was open, status “open” on internet), maybe because they were to lazy to prepare the equipment, maybe because the owner was busy riding…. If you’re looking for a good place for kitesurfing or windsurfing, you’d probably better find another one.

Valerie O: First time windsurfing and Andy made it an awesome experience. My spouse understands some Spanish but only to a certain extent, so he provided instructions in English and was very clear on what to do.I struggled to get the control and technique down, but Andy was very motivating and I got a smooth ride by the end! Another random windsurfer (tourist) observed and approached us during our session and commented that she could tell he was a good instructor and planned to sign her family up for a lesson.The lesson is along the beach where other people are leisurely swimming, but it didn't feel too crowded (it was a Wednesday).They have lockers for your belongings. There is a shower for a quick rinse (maybe not for a serious shower because of the not so great curtains).They have bathrooms.They have a bar area with seating.They have shop cats!I would definitely do this or any other water activity here again! Highly recommend!P.S. Windsurfing is a good workout!

Justine: Book with Windspot!! I spent 4+ hours on the water with Camilo over two days learning the fundamentals of wing foiling. I wasn’t expecting more than just rentals but Windspot was also a great place to hangout out before, after, and to take a break. They have a huge staff that are all involved to make sure you have a great experience. I wish I had more time on my vacation to go back a 3rd and 4th time. Whether you’re looking for paddle boarding, yoga, wing foiling, kite surfing, etc. definitely go to Windspot!

Roi Talbi: Christopher the tutor was really great 👍🏻

John Kay: Never have I seen such dangerous disregard for recreational swimmers and families!The guys that are trying to rent these jet skis to tourists frequently drive rapidly past swimmers bringing the smell of gasoline with them.My mother-in-law got doused with a wave created by some idiot driving by at higher than reasonable speed.We were swimming far from the shore and these jet skis are a constant lethal threat due to these guys driving at high speed with little regards for others.I doubt these guys have taken any boat safety classes or they just don't care about the safety of others.They are reckless and will cause death or serious bodily injury in the future (if they haven't already.)It is such a shame that Colombian officials don't regulate their waters better for the safety of all...I saw even worse conditions at Playa Blanca in Baru.Avoid Colombian beaches for your own safety!

Reinaldo Diaz: A magical place.

karinel diaz parra: It's good to have a good time, come and enjoy the good time that you have, bring a partner and use all the juices and yew that you want, always have a great time

Ligia Nasser: Wonderful place to learn a water sport, you can find a yoga teacher, a jacuzzi for 30 thousand per hour and if you want more, they'll give you a discount, beers, the beach and watch the sun go down, good prices and the service is excellent.

Carlos Manotas: Buen sitio para pasar una tarde

Joaquin Borja: Got there and the receptionist was really nice and professional. I got my jetski and one of the workers jumps on with me. I was thinking this was normal, but apparently not said the dude running the place. The worker tells me to head to a beach far away from the rental area, he then tells me he needs to get gas for the jetski. He let's me off the jetski and drives off where i can see what he was doing, he then opens the compartment where my wallet was and pretends like he was doing something. He didn't get gas. From then I knew he took money from me. He gets back and makes me drive to another beach where he hands off something to a friend, my money probably. We get back and I inform the people in charge and they confronted the worker. The person in charge told me thats why we tell people to put their items in the locker. Maybe your staff shouldn't steal smh.I doubt anything will happen to him. Overall they were nice except for that one worker who stole my money. Be safe with your items.

angela carrillo lozano: El servicio es muy bueno y la experiencia es excelente si quieres disfrutar del mar sin ningún ruido y con la mejor vista... El guía perseo es excelente....

Laureta Lahu: Had the most amazing time during the sunset paddleboard tour with Ricardo! Before we got in the water, he gave us very thorough but quick instructions on the correct way to paddle. He was very helpful, patient and kind. I had a waterproof phone case with me and he did not hesitate to take pictures of my boyfriend and I. The waves made it a little tough for us in the beginning, but he directed and instructed us the whole way! It became a whole lot easier a short while after we started. We stopped at an area with still water and he took wonderful pictures and videos of us. Memories we can keep forever! && When we returned to the WindSpot, he sat with us and recommended so many places and restaurants to see, in cartagena and even medellin. I was also a little burned from the sun the day before and he gave me an aloe leaf! 10000% would recommend the WindSpot and especially Ricardo as an instructor. We are so happy we found this place and extremely thankful for such a great experience. Try it out! You won’t regret it. Thank you to the WindSpot & a very very big thank you to Ricardo. 🤙♥️

Diana Luckysova - Sculptor and Artist: What a great Colombian business!💖 Super friendly and helpful stuff.We rented paddleboards and the three people who work there were just such sweethearts.Also the location is very nice with a beautiful bay and an easy access.

casper l: Amazing. The owner and staff are super friendly. Also Its very cheap compared to all other places on the playa and it has jacuzzi’s! I visites three times with in the 5 days I have been in Cartagena.

John Gesimondo: I had an amazing time and great lessons with Lisa at Pure Kitesurf this February! Defo recommend. Also, fun sport!Note: If you really want to start from scratch and get all the way to water starting and turning upwind, make sure you give yourself plenty of time! (It took me 8 days of 2-hour lessons to get there. It varies a lot by person). Also check out the hostel that's in the same building.

Hannes Rovina: Very helpful instructor, good gear and nice location. Shuttle close from old town is very handy.

Eva Holzer: Ich hatte eine super Zeit! Obwohl ich länger brauchte und es mir etwas schwer fiel gab meine Lehrerin nicht auf und zum Schluss stand ich am Board! Super freundlich, super Atmosphäre! Komme gerne wieder.

Erno Langendijk: Got my leg cut, my arm open and a finger brused but I managed my first controlled water starts and a 70 meter ride. Well done team Pure Kitesurf!!!

Nick Hedder: Had a great time with pure kitesurf! We have been there for the second time now and it is always a warm welcome. Awesome Spot for kiting (and learn how to kite) and the contact to Christina (owner) is always very nice. The instructors were great and professional as well. Try one of the downwinders to Cartagena (Advanced).Would love to come back!

Luisa Alvarez: Excellent teachers and kite equipment!We will be back!

Rosanne Melo: Fantástica experiência!!!Foi com a escola Pure Kitesurf que fiz minhas primeiras aulas de Kitesurf. O instrutor Andrew Davis foi simplesmente espetacular! Uma maravilhosa equipe em uma praia um pouco afastada do centro de Cartagena onde pude desfrutar de dias não só de aprendizagem mas também conhecer pessoas incríveis de todo mundo.-Instrutores falam vários idiomas 😂🌊🏄🏻💨💨🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴

Groll123: The staff and instructors are amazing. Everyone I worked with was super friendly and really knew their stuff. If you want to learn to kite surf I couldn’t think of a better place.

Moritz vB: We really enjoyed our kite lessons at pure kitesurf. Special thanks to our instructors Lisa and Theo who provided very individual sessions to have the best learning progress. Even though it is a quite difficult sport, it was great to see the progress every day.Staying at the Zion beach hostel next door gives you the perfect vibes to have an amazing time on the beach and in the water.

Kevin Conrad: My friend and I had an awesome experience with Pure Kitesurf. We each had a 2 hour introductory kitesurfing lesson, which started with an introduction on the mechanics of operating the kite, and finished with operating the kite on our own in the water while getting pulled at a pretty high speed on our bellies. It was like a self-controlled rollercoaster ride!The instructors were very good at teaching and the learning environment was very positive. It was the most fun we had in the week we spent in Cartagena, and we're now hooked on kitesurfing.

Patrick Pi: Great spot with few people, super professional and friendly staff, high-quality equipment in very good condition, multilingual instructors, comfortable. I highly recommend it!

Andreas Staub: Super organized with pick-up service. Very good kite material (core). Restaurant with fine menus and a cool, collegial atmosphere. Perfect wind like I haven't experienced in a long time (check wind season). The spot is not crowded; enough space on the water, which is a big PLUS, especially for beginner kiters. You also have the option of joining a group of "downwinders". All in all it was great (fully recommended).

Orla Jori: Absolutely great kite school from Christina, top material, great team and instructors (thanks Lisa ;) ), a good place to make progress in kiting.We spent 1 week in Manzanillo and then came back again ;-)Thank you for the nice experience 🙏

Alina Stiz: We had a lot of fun trying out kitesurfing at Pure Kitesurf. We could benefit a lot. Nice instructors, good equipment & great vibes. Thanks Christine for the cool experience & all the best for the future!Philip and Alina

Perla del Caribe: Espectacular !!!.... los mejores profe , todo muy profesional, el profe jesus fue muy bueno ayudandome al control de la cometa , gracias chicos !!!

Cody Neale: This is an amazing school i would recommend everyone should come here and take lessons they also rent the equipment if you do not need lessons spanish and english speaking instructors

Oscar Schemmann: Awesome school and people!! Christina (the owner) is super friendly and equipped to help all levels of experience from zero (such as myself) to the people kiting for years. Instructors were super fun to kite/hangout with, they also speak multiple languages which is super helpful. Last but not least Zion Beach house (part of the same building) is a great place to stay, really giving you the full package. 10/10 would recommend and will come again!

Tom Johnson: Had a great time kiting! Lisa was a great instructor and helped me progress through the steps quickly. It is nice that the beach is not too busy and they are the only kite school.

Ben Scott: Andrew was excellent and very helpful, but be aware as a beginner that there is no safety boat !

Phyllis Gleiser Blufstein: Christina’s kite school is the best!!! Excellent teachers for the whole family & a fantastic spot! Christina is a great teacher and will help you quickly improve your kiting skills.Highly recommended!! 🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄🏾💨💨💨
