Kite Club Hatteras is in full swing this Summer, offering kiteboarding lessons, accommodations and good times in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.The Outer Banks is regarded as kiteboarding paradise, with miles of waist deep water and consistent thermal winds, making for the best kiting conditions in the world, and one of the safest locations for newbie kiteboarders. Kite Club Hatteras’s certified IKO instructors teach kiteboarding according to the International Kiteboarding Organization’s methodology and have seen all levels of kiteboarders come through and progress with the program. The new Kite Club Hatteras boat has brought the school’s lessons to an increased level of ease and safety by taking students to the best locations for learning and for assisted downwinders once students get up on and riding on the board and traveling downwind.Staying at the Kite Club Hatteras house is a great way to meet new people and immerse yourself in the global kiteboarding community. You are made to feel “at home” in the easy going, friendly atmosphere, of the house with organized group dinners and outings. The house boasts a fully equipped kitchen, spacious living area and clean bedrooms and bathrooms. Located in Avon there are several kiting spots within a five minute drive and the canal access to the sound can get you onto the water even faster by boat.Note from Hristo Stoyanov, Owner of Kite Club Hatteras: “We’re having a really fun and active season this year, we’ve met some really great people from all over the States (and world too.) The Summer winds have been blowing strong and consistently and we’re looking forward to a promising fall Season.”
Great porches front and back for relaxing so close to OBX beaches owners are laid back, helpful and fun and helped make our trip extra great. If you wanna learn kiteboarding this is the spot they will have you up in a day....yay

Absolutely the best.. highly recommend for wonderful lodging and water sport options. James and Christos are great people.. will be back next year. The proximity to the Sound and the quality of equipment was also great. If you want a secluded, quiet experience, then this is your spot

Excellent service!! Clean rooms. Excellent location for a kitesurfing beginner like me as there’s shallow water and good consistent wind conditions. The instructors are also very solid and the owner is really kind

I wanted to try kite boarding for the first time and found Kite Club Hatteras. I booked 3 lessons with Ben, and by the second day was up on the board! The location is perfect. You wait until the wind picks up and hop on the seadoo. In a few minutes you are on the sound. Christo, Graham, and Ben were awesome hosts. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The shared kitchen and nearby grocery store made it easy to make your own meals. But we couldn't resist going to the restaurants that were close by. 5 out of 5!

Accommodations are clean and modern and they have everything you need. You leave by boat directly from their dock for kite-boarding lessons which is convenient. Gear is all new and high quality (they use Cabrinha kites exclusively). Christo and Graham are both great hosts and great instructors...my kite-boarding improved significantly in just three 2-hour lessons. The town of Avon has all you need as well (Food Lion, nice restaurants and beaches, etc.) but it's still very laid back and pretty quiet. The sound near Avon is an ideal place to learn. Thanks again guys...I'll be back, Joe

My husband & I stayed here for 3 weeks and kited almost everyday. Christo & Melissa were great. The instructors are highly recommended. The location was close to a lot of kite spots, the grocery store, and within walking distance to some bars and restaurants too. I also loved doing yoga on the deck and listening to the birds. We would go back for sure..

I spent a week with KCH. I took the private lessons with Graham. He is truly amazing. His demonstrations showed me the proper techniques and gave me something to aspire to! He was very patient with me and guided and coached me thru the lessons. By the end of the week, I was able to ride the board! I also had my last lesson with Christo. Just like Graham, Christo was patient and offered suggestions to improve my skills. I plan to return in the late summer / early fall to continue to hone my skills. The sound is the perfect depth for learning to kite board.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, the location is great, but the best part is the people running the place. Christo, the owner, went over and above to make my stay and my kiting really enjoyable. His instructor Oleg is really cool and friendly, but most of all, such a good instructor! He pushed me beyond my comfort level (but in a very safe manner) so I felt very safe trying new tricks I would not try on my own without someone behind my back making sure I am safe. My kiting improved immensely and for this I am forever grateful. Oleg even tried to teach me the dark slide but too bad the student is a slow learner. But I shall return and nail it on my next visit!

We had a wonderful week at the Turtle Club house at Kite Club Hatteras. The place was clean and quiet (we came in the off season). The beds were comfortable, and the whole setup was exactly what we needed. The kitchen was stocked with all the utensils and pots/pans we needed. The location was convenient to a local Food Lion shopping center that included a variety of restaurants, Duck Donuts, Dirty Dick's Crab Shack, and more. We had a great time in Avon, and would definitely stay here again.
