A wave of good energy

Aug 2021 • Friends

Funsurf center is a little place of positive energy and peace. Surrounded by the grass, this little spot has direct access to the lake from an ideal and lovely position. Upali, the main instructor, was an amazing teacher. He always had the situation under his control, great clearness (and perfect English) in explaining, attention to every single person even when the weather made everything more challenging. He really cares about creating the best conditions for an unforgettable experience and makes you feel the connection to the nature, the wind and the energy that make this sport so wonderful. Thanks Upali!

beginners lesson for family with 3 teens

Jul 2022

Had beginner land based lesson for family of 5 (2 adults, 3 teenagers). Upali kept it simple but clear on the key points. Next morning relaxed but full morning of windsurfing. Didn't feel time-pressured. Upali kept an eye on everyone from motor boat, giving tips and if necessary towing us out to windier area when more confident. Got a good taster with this experience

Great experience at the surf school:)

Sep 2020 • Couples

Great Teacher and great location to learn windsurfing! The school atmosphere is really friendly and easy going and the instructions very helpful and calm and friendly. Besides, the teacher can explain in an incredible amount of languages so nobody is lost in translation. While surfing, the aourroundings offer incredible views:)
I would highly recommend the surf school.

I took here my first windsurfing lesson and I've continued doing it ever since. Upali is a very professional and friendly instructor. With many years of experience he knows exactly how to inspire people by this beautiful sport.

Everything was perfect

Aug 2020 • Solo

Here you have an experienced, funny and professional teacher who chose the perfect spot for his surf school - on stormy days you can remain in the bay and on days without much wind you can go outside to catch the wind on the lake. The teacher really puts his heart into it so you learn windsurfing and have fun while doing it. You can feel it's his priority that everyone is a good surfer. Not too much theory, hands on. Top-notch material as well, so everything was perfect and really happy I chose this spot.

Perfect spot, great people.

Aug 2020

This is just THE place to be if you want to learn windsurfing.
The smiling aplomb of Upali ("it's simple, relax!") and his tireless assistant Giovanni have taken me through the first steps of this beautiful sport with no stress and immediate results.
The 4 days kickstart for beginners is perfect to get going.
What else?
