Safety
procedures are very important in watersports, especially on a
hotel beach with many people around, therefore we have a few rules and
procedures to make your kiteboarding experience safe and enjoyable. Before
going out we require all customers to come to our center for registration
and orientation, during these procedures we will take your personal details,
give you a good briefing about our procedures and we will do a walk around
the facilities and the beach to show you where to store and clean equipment,
where to launch, recommended riding areas etc. Have fun on the water and
be careful!
