About the spot

The Langeban north of Cape Town is often chosen when Blauberg's ocean waves seem like an unnecessary task. There are several zones in the lagoon, including Main Beach and Shark Bay; conditions vary between them. The city provides accommodation and a cafe near the water, and kitesurfing becomes the center of the day. Even on calm water should take into account the tides, current and other activities in the water area.

What to pay attention to

Check permitted riding boundaries and tides. Flat water does not guarantee enough depth for jumping.

How to plan the road

They are usually taken by car or transfer from Cape Town.

Before paying, check with the receiving team the place of study and the nearest comfortable accommodation. “Hotel by the sea” and “hotel by the kite zone” do not always mean the same thing.

Where is it?

The marker shows the area, not the exact launch point. Find the station address and permitted area at the school.

Questions before travel

How to choose the time of the trip?

Southern summer is a guide for planning. Before paying, confirm the season at the local school and check the forecast for travel dates.

What to ask the school before booking?

Where the lessons are held, what the size of the group is, whether the equipment is included, what language is taught and how the rescue on the water is organized.

Sources and relevance
