Mobile ticket
We from Awa Salu Kiteboarding Curacao, offer you premium, high quality kite lessons. We are looking out for you with a high focus on technique and safety.
We are located at the A-spot for kiteboarding on the mainland of Curaçao at the St. Joris bay. Before and after your lessons you can get the tips and watch the tricks of the local kiteboarder in their habitat.
The water is both shallow and deep, for practicing all aspects of kiteboarding. For the more advanced courses we practice walking the kite and launching and landing the kite on land.
Wondering if kiteboarding is for you? Learning to kiteboard is like learning to drive a car. A kid could learn it. After a couple of lessons, you will get the hang of it and go as slow or fast, high or low as you want to go.

5.00Best way to spend my birthday! Kim took great care of me - we started with some skill refreshers and then proceeded to kite across the gorgeous bay! I struggled a bit in the beginning, but with her expert guidance, I was zipping around in no time! 10/10 would learn with Awa Salu again!
Best kite school in Curacao!

5.00Kim is a fantastic instructor!! I can recommend her to anyone. I had lessons from her myself but my son of 9 years old also taught them. Her instruction is short and clear. What I really like about her is that she always goes in the water. This allows her to immediately see where you still need improvement. In addition, Kim is a fantastic fun girl!!
A great kitesur lesson!

5.00What a beautiful island !!!!!!!!!, the weather, the beaches and people with lots of sympathy and kindness..... The center is particularly beautiful and when you think it's all cute, you get to the western beaches, it becomes amazing......
Kim stands head and shoulders above it as a teacher!

5.00Really had a top kite lesson from Kim! I could already sail back and forth, but she gave me a lot of little tips that made my transitions (little turns) successful + my first jump (little jump). Have taken classes before, but Kim stands out!!
Highly recommended

5.00Awa Salu Kiteboarding gets my highest recommendation! I reached out to Kim and I knew from the start she was very professional, knowledgeable and fun. I had taken a few lessons before, but Kim taught me new theory and new skills and above all made the lessons so much fun. She gave me confidence to continue and hopefully I will be back soon!!
Kiten at Kim's
