Your first kitesurfing course in Portugal – tips for beginners in Aveiro, just an hour from Porto

Anyone interested in learning to kitesurf will find one of the best spots in all of Europe in Aveiro , just a 60-minute drive south of Porto . The Ria de Aveiro—protected by sandbars—offers shallow waters, steady winds, and plenty of space. Perfect conditions for fast and safe progress.

Why Aveiro is ideal for beginners

• Shallow water makes it easier to learn how to launch a kite and control a board.

• The constant wind in the Portuguese “Nortada” guarantees optimal training conditions.

• Large lagoon without crowds – ideal for concentrated training.

This is how a kitesurfing course with us works

At MyWay Kitesurfing School, we begin with an introduction on land, followed by initial kitesurfing exercises on the water. Step by step, you'll learn to master kite handling, get on the board, and surf the first few meters. Thanks to our own boats, we also offer downwinders of various lengths —a special experience for beginners and advanced riders.

Premium equipment included

We use state-of-the-art Flysurfer equipment , which you can not only use but also test during the course. This way, you benefit from cutting-edge technology that accelerates your learning.

For windless days and leisure activities

If the wind dies down, we offer numerous alternatives: SUPs , surfboards , bikes , and wakeboards to ensure you never get bored. Even advanced surfers will find challenges and suitable locations to hone their skills.

Community and fun

Every Saturday, we invite you to our weekly barbecue – the perfect place to meet other kitesurfers, share stories, and end the day in a relaxed atmosphere.
