The
Team
We teach in German & English
We are a team of swiss, german and austrian kitesurf Instructors, teaching in german and english. After many years of travelling and teaching on different spots around the world we decided to give Albania a chance.
But why Albania?
Well, the Albanian coastline offers awesome kitesurfing possibilities, endless beaches, waves and flatwater lagoons. We find perfect teaching conditions on our home-spot as the water is perfectly shallow and the winds are usually side-onshore. Apart from the coastline, Albania has a lot to offer; huge wild National Parks, rich cuisine, strong and diverse culture and the still existing possibility to explore abandoned and lost places.
Come to Albania and convince yourself, we are happy to welcome you.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
Is Albania Safe?
Yes, in some parts Albania is probably safer than some other European holiday destinations. Big cities are always different than the countryside, so in Albania.
What else is there to do?
Check out our Tips about Albania. Other than that you will find a huge variety of extreme sports such as rafting, paragliding and for example canyoning. For the more relaxed holiday; snorkeling, diving, hiking, horseback riding and relaxing on the beach could be a nice alternative. Whatever you could think of, you could probably realise it in Albania.
What happens on no wind days?
You could enjoy the near-by beaches, wander around in the old towns of Durres or Tirana, get some cultural exchange or try other adventure sports such as rafting, canyoning or paragliding. Ask us and we will do our best to help you finding the perfect alternative.
But, as we teach with a wider range of high performance kites, we are able to cover every wind starting from 5-10kt. Furthermore due to our mobile school, we can easily adapt to different wind directions and therefore take the best wind on the Albanian coastline.
