The Reef Kite + Surf center is located on Sandy Beach – St Lucia’s best kitesurfing beach on the south-east coast of the island – close to the town of Vieux Fort. The bay is unspoilt and uncrowded … every kitesurfer’s dream.

Our kitesurfing school offers lessons to suit all levels and abilities, so whatever your goals might be – from simply learning how to pilot a kite to pulling off advanced tricks – the instructors at The Reef can guide you every step of the way. An integral part of our lesson structure is a focus on teaching you to become an independent rider with the skills, knowledge and ability to handle situations that may arise once you start kiting on your own in other locations

The Kitesurfing school is located on the grounds of The Reef Beach Cafe, a full-service beachfront restaurant and bar. The Reef Beach Huts also located on-site, offer clean, friendly, down-to-earth accommodation just a few steps from the school.
