Several kite schools and water-sports centres operate along Paje Beach, offering lessons for beginners and equipment rental for experienced riders.

The lagoon is shallow at low tide, so check the tide times before you plan your session. Our team can point you to a trusted school.

We can help arrange this for you. Message us with your dates and we will take care of the details.
