Do I need kitesurfing/kiteboarding lessons? I have experience snowboarding, surfing etc... Yes. It is pretty much a definite. Although you might feel confident with a board, kite control and kite safety are very important. Things could go horribly wrong if you were to learn by yourself, with the possibility of damaging your equipment, hurting yourself or other people on the beach. Instructors at the kite center are very experienced, and can guide you safely through the learning process.

The kite center will provide an instructor that can speak Chinese or English. All equipment is provided too.If you are planning to be kitesurfing regularly and you are living in Xiamen, it would be definitely worth buying your own equipment. If you are just coming here for holiday now and again, then renting could be an easier option. Although, it could be worth buying your own harness and kite, and just renting a board when you come here.

Sail Away with Ease Whether you're sailing or kayaking, having some buoyancy aids on board is the intelligent thing to do. Knowing how to swim is one thing, but in the case of an emergency or unfortunate accident, having a buoyancy jacket may well save your life or someone else's. If you're sailing, you need to keep a few sizes of jackets - preferably one for every person that will be on board. When buying any buoyancy aid for sailing you need to keep in mind a few different sizes for children and adults. A wide range to choose from- Our sailing buoyancy aid jackets are made from flexible foam sheets which make them light and comfortable to wear. We also have a range of accessories for you to take on board, like salt water resistant sailing jackets, dry bags for valuables, waterproof clothing and other buoyancy devices.
