About us

Why the name Humboldt Kites? The windy season on the Ecuadorian coast starts every year with the arrival from the south of the cold water Humboldt current.

This cold water marks the end of the rainy season, and the beginning of the dry season and good winds.The school opens every year in May and offers lessons and services for kiteboarders untill December.

Our Kitesurfing school offers one on one lessons for first time riders or for any rider that wants to improve his/her skills.
