My brother and I had a super time kiteboarding at the 15 knots shop/school. Juan Carlos and Felix couldn't have been nicer. Whatever you need: lessons, gear, air, tips, or just hanging around, 15 knots is the spot! The other kiters on the beach in front of 15 knots were a lot of fun too. I can't wait to get...

Friend of mine took the 6hr class and i rented for two days. At the end of 6hrs she could almost! stand up. Which isn't bad. Was taught by someone who was pro-kitesurfer. Equipments was generally very good, they didn't have that many boards but enough span in terms of kites to use smaller board. They were honest about the...

15 Knots Kiteboarding is absolutely fabulous!! The instructors are very experienced & really good at communicating and shortening the learning curve for their students. I have some kite experience, but they explained and demonstrated things in a new, very helpful way. I asked about them taking photos & Juan Carlos offered to let me use his GoPro & he made...

Katie came down from the Florida Keys having never ridden on deep water. We took on the task of showing her how to ride in a real ocean scenario. The water is deep but...

I reached out to Juan Carlos for lessons and set up a 2 hour session. The instructor assigned to me was very knowledgeable and patient with me. 15 Knots stocks very up to date equipment and has a selection for all levels. I will be back soon to rent equipment from 15 Knots!!
