Learning to kitesurf – when is the right time?
Many people watch riders from the beach and delay their first course for months. Too dangerous, too hard, too expensive – almost everyone starting out has these thoughts. But the best time is always the same: now.
Kitesurfing isn’t about age, strength, or prior experience. You don’t need board-sport skills, sculpted arms, or surf experience. What you do need: time at the beginning, and the will to stick with it even when progress isn’t instant. The wind is unpredictable – that’s part of it. Accept that, and your first progress will come faster than you think.
A solid base fitness is enough. You should be able to swim and weigh at least 30 kg. There’s no upper limit – neither for weight nor age. Learning at 40, 50, or 60 is no problem as long as you feel fit and are up for something new.
There are spots you don’t reach via highway – where asphalt ends and sand begins. Tatajuba is one of those places you never want to leave – far from mass tourism, set in a lagoon landscape that feels made just for kitesurfers.
What makes Tatajuba special is the strong wind, warm water, and quiet. The kitesurfing, the simplicity – walking barefoot through the sand, watching the sun sink into the sea. And the people who live here and give this little village its own character. After a long day on the water, a cool caipirinha and a fresh oyster make the perfect evening even sweeter.
And right in the middle is Osvaldo: born and raised here, manager of our kite center, and the one who shows you his home spot.
“Everything is in wonderful balance: nature, kiting, community. You just have to experience it yourself.” Osvaldo · Kite Center Manager, Tatajuba
