About us
WA KITESURF ACADEMY is locally owned and run which means we understand the wind conditions and possible hazards in Perth. We are on the water as soon as the Summer sea breeze kicks in just after mid day every windy day.
We use state of the art 2 way bluetooth radio helmet communication allowing you to talk to your instructor hands free even when your on the water so you always feel safe. We provide all equipment including wetsuits, helmets, harnesses, wetsuit boots, kites, bar and lines and lifejackets.
We are so confident that our spot attracts consistent wind that we implement our NO WIND NO CHARGE GUARANTEE. If there is not enough wind for your lesson we will rebook it free of charge for a time that suits you.
WA KITESURF ACADEMY employ only Internationally certified IKO or KA instructors. We put a strong emphasis on safety so that you can walk away from us feeling confident in your ability to kitesurf safely and the ability to get yourself safely out of any sticky situation on the water.

Student reviews
Great experience. Had 3 lessons with WA kitesurf academy as a refresher course, and enjoyed all of them immensely.
With Jons teaching I was able to progress enough over the 3 lessons to feel comfortable kitesurfing on my own. Very safe and professional as well as extremely helpful when it came to advice on what kitesurfing gear to buy.
Fully recommend WA kitesurf academy
