Every morning, you wake up for an amazing breakfast, prepared by a private chef, to kick-off the day.

Luckily, the guesthouse is only 50 meters away from the beach, so in between sessions, you have the possibility to walk home for lunch or a little nap.
After a full day kiting, you get back to the guesthouse and finish the day off with a refreshing drink while watching the sunset on the roof terrace. Afterward, you will grab a quick shower, some food and for the people who are still full of energy, there are many options to enjoy some music in one of the several pubs and cafes.
In 2005, Felix's kite adventure started at Workum, as soon as he saw the leaves on the trees move, everything went aside and he immediately had to get on the water. After a winter training in Brazil in 2009 with friends, he went through several European kite tours with good results and the national events here in the Netherlands were always very nice! Traveling, kiting, and teaching are his three passions in life and he is happy to make his passions his job. Now that he has completed his High Hotel School education, he is ready to make your KiteActive holiday a legendary success!
What could be better than making your hobby your job? The training to become a kitesurf instructor was therefore an easy choice. After obtaining the diploma, I taught a lot at Workum and Schiermonnikoog. It still gives me a thrill when a student makes his or her first meters and comes from the water to the ear with a smile! I was allowed to work on various national and international kitesurfing events. After a few summers I exchanged Schiermonnikoog for Aruba. Here I organized the Aruba Hi-Winds the largest kitesurf/windsurf event in the Caribbean.
It is sometimes difficult to explain to a non-rider that kiting is the most beautiful thing there is. I always describe it as my active relaxation. From myself I am quite busy, then it is often nice to do something active, while I definitely relax, it is yoga the water. On a KiteActive trip this is even more reinforced by the fact that you are with a group of people who find kiting just as important in their lives as I think it is. Sharing a passion often creates a bond the first day. That is why I hope that I can still travel a lot, where I can at least try to convey my enthusiasm to you.

The African village of Paje is the kitesurfing spot in Zanzibar. Stunningly beautiful white beaches with shallow and crystal clear water. 1.5 kilometers from the coast, you will find a reef where the best waves of the island break and there's absolutely nothing in your way with the exception of a few dolphins that might swim with you.
The wind blows side-onshore from the right in the summer and from the left in the winter. On low tide, there's an amazing lagoon right in front of the guesthouse, which is excellent for flat water freestyle action, but certainly also perfect for enthusiastic kitesurfing beginners.
Zanzibar is surrounded by smaller islands, especially on the south side of the island. The Blue Safari is a beautiful trip and experience of Zanzibar. You sail to a beautiful sandbar with a local boat through a dolphin-rich area. Something spectacular to witness and to have seen, the perfect kitesurfing spot!
Zanzibar offers many options. As a kitesurfer, you can make downwinders or improve yourself during the trick clinics in Zanzibar. Do you want to make a lot of kitesurf progression, test kites or take a ride on a waveboard during your kitesurf vacation? It is possible! Play in the waves of Zanzibar or enjoy a sunset on your own sup board. There are also many activities that you can do during your trip. If you want you can also go on safari on the mainland, or book 1 of the many tours. You can also do day trips during your kitesurfing holiday, such as Blue Safari, spice tour and dolphin tour which can be booked on-site.
During your stay, you will be served with local breakfast and Swahili dinner, which is Zanzibar's specialty.
