Club Mistral: Wind- en kitesurfen
"Mauritius was made first, and then heaven; and heaven was copied after Mauritius" wrote Mark Twain a good 100 years ago. The famous writer was not wrong. Bizarre mountain peaks, magnificent palm-fringed beaches, colorful coral reefs, shimmering azure lagoons, and wind the whole year! What more could windsurfers and kitesurfers wish for?!
With almost 300 days of wind per year, what other destination can compete with Mauritius? It would be almost a shame, however, to spend all one's time on Mauritius windsurfing or kitesurfing. After all, the cultural influences in Mauritius are just as diverse as the composition of its population and you should definitely also take time to explore the delightful countryside and fascinating culture.

The spot on Mauritius
A dream spot: a white sandy beach, a turquoise lagoon and shallow water. The whole lagoon is surrounded by a reef, which is 600 meters off the beach. Depending on the tide, the water might be so shallow at low tide that sometimes neither the reef nor the lagoon can be surfed. Within the lagoon there is enough space for speed racing or practicing gybes and water starts.
Outside you can find two wave spots: “Little Reef” with modest waves and “Manawa” for experienced kitesurfers, who can participate in one of the regular surfing excursions to this spot. The famous “One Eye” is only suitable for experts.
Premium kitesurfing courses are conducted with boat support, which means there are many possible spots for courses to take place, depending on wind direction and your individual wishes. Video coaching and walkie talkies are used for guaranteed faster pregression. Learning kitesurfing has never been more enjoyable than this luxury experience.
