WingFoil Courses in Tarifa

Our WingFoil courses are flexible and tailored to your level. The most common package includes around 6 hours of lessons, usually spread over 2 hours per day. Some students prefer 3-hour sessions, especially if they're in good physical condition. To reach full independence, most students need between 8 and 10 hours of private or semi-private lessons.

Private WingFoil course (1 student)

This option provides the quickest and safest path to learning. You get an instructor fully dedicated to you, tailoring every part of the lesson to your abilities and progress. Private lessons include a radio helmet system, enabling real-time communication with your instructor even on the water. This is the ideal choice for individuals who want to learn fast or prefer one-on-one coaching.

Semi-Private WingFoil course (2 students)

In semi-private lessons, each participant uses their own equipment while sharing an instructor. Since attention is divided, both riders should have similar skill levels for the best experience. This option balances effective learning with a more affordable price compared to private lessons, making it great for pairs who want to progress together.

Group WingFoil course (3 to 4 students)

Group lessons offer the most cost-effective way to learn — roughly 45% less than private classes. However, because two wings are shared among three or four students, the pace is slower, and you’ll spend time observing peers. We suggest booking at least 8 hours in this format for meaningful improvement. For faster progress without sharing gear, consider booking consecutive lessons or additional instructors.

The pace of progress in WingFoil varies depending on each student’s experience and skill level. Typically, beginners start with a 3-day course, but some may require a full week or more to gain solid control before confidently navigating on their own. Even when you become independent on the water, it’s always safer to practice with a partner.

Learning WingFoil involves mastering three key skills: handling the wing on land, using the wing with a board (without the foil), and finally, riding the foil once you’ve built enough confidence. Usually, each lesson focuses on one of these stages.

Every learner is unique — some might be ready to hit the water on day one, while others may need extra practice on land during their second session. Our standard course format is 6 hours total, typically split into 2-hour sessions per day.

• Professional WingFoil instructor
• Complete equipment package (wing, board, wetsuit, helmet, life vest, and more)
• Accident and liability insurance
• Rescue boat support (available on Levante wind days)

That depends on the wind. We always look at the conditions in advance and we will let you know the exact time when we will start the classes.

If it is Levante, the wind is usually present all day, and we usually start around 10:00-11:00. If the wind is from the West, classes usually start around 14:00 in the afternoon, and we usually have wind until 19:00-20:00 or until the wind drops.

You can select your preferred class time on our website, but please note that this schedule may change based on the weather.

We usually hold our lessons at Los Lances Norte beach, right next to Chiringuito Agua, where the rescue boat service is based.

However, depending on the wind conditions—especially during strong Levante winds in Tarifa—we may move to Palmones, near Algeciras.

Occasionally, we also teach at Valdevaqueros, the football stadium area, Getares, and other spots depending on the weather and sea conditions.

Yes, but this feature is only available in private lessons. We use radio helmet communication, allowing your instructor to speak to you in real time so you can hear their instructions clearly, even while you're out on the water. This real-time guidance makes your WingFoil lessons more effective, helping you progress more quickly with immediate feedback and support.

Since WingFoil is a wind-dependent sport, we can’t guarantee perfect conditions every day — although in Tarifa, the wind rarely lets us down. If the wind drops during your lesson, we’ll pause the session and either wait for it to return or reschedule the remaining time for another day that suits you. And if weather conditions prevent you from completing your paid hours, we’ll gladly offer you a refund.
