Wing Foil, Kitesurf, Windsurf
WATERSPORT PARADISE
Kiteboarding magazines consistently rate La Ventana as one of the best places to learn and train. From mid-October to mid-April there’s warm water and consistent wind suited for beginners to experts. Around late morning the winds begin, light at first, and typically building to 15-25 mph in the afternoon. It usually blows from about 11:00 to 4:00 or 5:00 with calm mornings and evenings for other activities or relaxing.
You can launch on the wide beach right in front of the resort. The winds are side shore, and there’s an air hose on the beach to get your kite ready quickly. Onsite gear storage is in our beachfront bodega.
For an extra fee, we’ll shuttle you upwind for a downwinder:
To Campground: $10 (2 rider minimum)
To Hot Springs: $20 (2 rider minimum)
This season, we will resume running our full service water sports center with all the great gear you want, and any instruction you may need to help maximize your water play.
Wing-foiling- We have lots of great gear from Fanatic (boards and foils) and Duotone wings, and instructors ready to take you from zero to hero! The instruction is tailored toward your level, generally starting with instruction on the shore, followed by tow foil training behind a jet ski, then moving to the water with wing and board
Kitesurfing- In order to rent kite surfing gear, you will need to demonstrate proficiency or present an IKO card. Our instructors can assess proficiency, and provide lessons on land and water if needed. Jet ski-assisted lessons are also available.
We are in the process of updating our water sports rental, and instruction site, but in the interim, please contact us directly: ventanawindsports@gmail.com or Miguel; Mex cell/whatsapp +52 612 288 0706

Instructors/Lessons
Wing Foiling- Instruction will generally start on the shore, and then move to the water when you are ready. The instruction is tailored toward your level, and with just two or three lessons, you will be ready to practice your skills on your own. We also have jet skis available to help get you out there learning to foil behind the jet ski even if there is no wind. It’s a great way to isolate the skills of foiling and wing use; Divide and conquer!
Kitesurfing- We have two IKO instructors on-site, available to teach in English or Spanish on new Duotone kite gear. We also have two-way radio helmets, which allow our instructors to carry on hands-free instruction while you are on the water, as well as ATV shuttles. We can also set you up with some of our local kitesurfing instructor partners if our instructors are already booked. Our beachfront launch is one of the best spots in the area, with a nice wide and sandy beach!
