Kite Lesson
Aitutaki is a Wing Foil and kiteboard paradise. We offer comprehensive coaching at all levels for both of these awesome sports.
The kite school follows the IKO (International Kiteboarding Organisation) method of teaching.
Our instructors are IKO qualified. They can take you from complete beginner level to advanced.
The wing foil school has experienced instructors with years of knowledge and expertise. You only need to read some of the trip advisor comments to realise that you will be in very safe hands.
The centre is located on Honeymoon Island. Honeymoon Island, a sandbar over a kilometre long, faces the easterly trade winds.
This means massive areas of flat water for all for us. Whether it’s learning your newest unhooked move or understanding how to stay upwind, shallow water with smooth wind is going to advance your riding more than anything else.
This is what we provide; the best progression area you can find anywhere.

Other Activities
Great kiting. Mike Lee was terrific! Pick up at our hotel, water taxi to Honey Moon Island, rental gear and safety boat (just in case)! He provides... read more instruction as well! Beautiful flat shallow water near the island with deeper water just a little further out.
We could not have had a better experience!!

#1 kiteboarding destination at Honeymoon Island - After an amazing week last year we came back for another week of kiteboarding with Mike Lee and Bo and Rick at Kiteboarding Aitutaki. Superb and relaxed customer service from... read more Mike, meet every morning at 9 at the wharf, ice coffees then off to the island. Great little kite camp on the island, then 360degree choice of kiting dependant on wind direction. Knee deep lagoon on the lee of a sand bar for a smooth ride in the south east trade wind direction. Wing foiling on the windward side then a few exquisite diving options if the wind drops for a day. Definitely coming back every year! Chris and Lyn Jansen

You have to give everything a go in life! - My first go at kiteboarding and Bo was a great instructor- I even managed to get up on a board (for a second or two!). Honeymoon Island has to be... read more one of the prettiest places in the world and perfect for kiteboarding - beginners or experts. Warm crystal clear water and shallow. No wonder this place is considered one of the best kite boarding locations in the world.

What a great team - Aitutaki Kite School. - I spent 2 weeks in July 2023 kiting with Mike, Boo and Rick, the team at Aitutaki Kiteboarding. What a great team! They provided high quality wing foiling and kiting... read more instruction with an emphasis on safety. They also provided daily transport to and from the island off Aitutaki, snorkelling expeditions, and humour. I will definitely go back next season to spend another 2 weeks of fun with them. Kathy H
