The Blue Highway

Windsurfing

From your first uphaul to planing on the fin, on Aruba's flattest water.

Windsurfing

Windsurfing asks less of you on day one than kiting or winging: the rig is attached to the board, so nothing gets away from you. Most people are sailing across the wind within a couple of hours.

The flat, shallow water here is close to ideal for learning, and you can stand up almost anywhere in the teaching area. Lessons stay inside it, with your instructor there for the whole lesson.

Levels

First time? Take the beginner class. Further along? Book a private lesson and we'll start where you are. Each lesson: 2 hours.

First time

Balance, uphauling the sail, and steering. By the end you'll sail out and come back.

Intermediate

Beach start, upwind sailing, and using the harness so your arms last more than ten minutes.

  • Harness technique
  • Upwind drills

Planing and beyond

Footstraps, planing, and your first attempts at a carve gybe.

  • Smaller kit
