Booked a kitesurf course. I was taught by various teachers. Everyone was very competent, friendly and patient. It was a lot of fun for me. I can fully recommend Accrokite.

We did a discovery kite surfing private lesson with Accrokite. Within just a couple of hours, we get quite comfortable with the Kite and learned the basics if kite surfing, including many safety tips and advice. I would highly recommend the school

This was my 3rd Phangan visit and second time taking kitesurfing lessons. Accrokite is at a very good kitesurfing spot - most of the days we had perfect wind and water is not too deep. I'm very happy how Accrokite crew handled customers - Riko kept me updated about wind conditions daily which gave me an opportunity to plan my vacation days better, I could pay with card and my instructor Paulo was great at communicating with me, help to find my kitesurfing weak spots and really focused on improving my skill. As a beginner you have bit of information overload (steer the kite, check your body position, check your board, feel the wind, check your surrounding and list goes on) but Paulo helped to minimize information amount, always checked my back and he was constantly working with me. Accrokite kitesurfing gear was very good (kite, harness, board of course but also small things as wetsuit boots, life vest etc.) In the end I got my official IKO certificate :) All in all i'm a happy customer and I would definitely recommend Accrokite :) Big thanks Riko and Paulo - for sure I'll be back :)
Great school!

Came for 10 days of kite in koh phangan and couldn't have landed in a better place! Riko arranged accomodations for us in a nearby resort and all crew was very welcoming. The spot is awesome and he has the best IKO instructors in the area with state of the art Duotone equipment. Don't think twice !

Great school and amazing spot to learn kitesurfing in Koh Phangan! I had a chance to take 5h lessons with very profesional and experienced instructors (thanks Paulo and V). I have also received IKO certificate after. The owner Riko was in touch with me all the time, so i was updated on the wind conditions and could flexibly schedule my lessons depending on the weather. Very chilled place, highly recommend to anyone who would like to try kitesurfing! Thanks guys! :)
Definitely recommend
