Kiteboarding, like kitesurfing, pairs a power kite with a board for extreme-sport wave fun. Where kitesurfing makes use of a standard surfboard or similar, the kiteboarding board is smaller and more like a wakeboard or small surfboard.

A balmy year-round climate, warm water, golden beaches and spectacular surf make Durban's North Coast beaches a hotspot for surfing, kitesurfing and kiteboarding. It is here, on the beaches of Ballito, a coastal town about 40 kilometres north of Durban, that you'll find kiteboarding schools and professional instructors.
Spend a holiday in the area and keep a few hours each day aside to learn how to handle the kite on the beach before taking to the waves.
