• Great Introduction to the World of Windsurfing
• Two Day Course with RYA Level 1 Certification
• Hire Equipment Worldwide with Your Certificate

Windsurfing is one of the most exciting and vibrant watersports available today. Using old techniques to harness the wind’s power, you will gain some serious speed and air (eventually!) from timing your technique and skill to perfection. With the introduction of technology to an old sport and its equipment, windsurfing is now very easy to pick up and have a go for yourself. The RYA Level 1 windsurfing course is a two day course for people who are serious about learning to windsurf, or if you have a little experience in the sport. The most essential quality required is a desire to learn it though, as it is by no means an easy sport. However, it is a fantastically enjoyable sport that will provide endless entertainment and extremely good exercise! The RYA Level 1 certificate allows you to hire equipment at RYA centres worldwide - under supervision.
