You are welcome to keep reading, but the summary of this review will tell you to write Kitesurfing Cayman now and do it! As someone that only booked due to reviews I felt it was important to leave mine... I am absolutely the person that thought they would be blown out to sea or dragged 20 ft. in the air. I had nightmares the night before...was a I wrong. My husband an I signed up for a semi-private lesson the night before. Jhon was extremely responsive via their website inquiry form. We booked for the next day, requested pick-up and they kindly confirmed extremely quickly. As my husband and I have 30+ lbs weight difference they did recommend two private lessons...we stuck with the semi-private, but in the future I would likely try private. Chris picked us up from the Westin, right on time. He is a Cayman island expert...and was a joy to chat with. Barkers Beach is a hidden beauty. There were 5-6 kitesurfers in the water when we arrived and the view was incredible. We arrived and were greeted with gear setup. They will give you water shoes and goggles (sunglasses are a no go, you'll see why). Additionally life vests, helmets and harness for the kite. What a start-to-finish incredible experience working with Edwin. Not a single thing was intimidating. The lesson is very hands-on, you will help inflate your own kite and you are taught about all safety measures regarding kitesurfing. Edwin taught us how to properly setup our kites as well as how to safely use of all the gear. Edwin kept us on task but also made sure that the lesson was progressing at a pace that worked for us. We were in the water within 10 minute of the lesson beginning. You will first learn about the kite and how to maneuver it properly. You will quickly realize you are in complete control of the kite if you know how to operate it properly. It does not take strength, just proper technique. By the end we were both able to stand up on the board (albeit for short stints...but it felt incredible)!!!! This crazy sport I've observed others doing, that I never thought I could do, and I did it. Edwin made us both feel safe using the kite and was always right next to us in the water. He was accommodating to both of our strengths and weaknesses, modifying to each of our needs. I could go on and on. This was my 9th time in Cayman and my first time kitesurfing. If anything, I am sad I didn't find them sooner. Full disclosure you will likely swallow a decent amount of Cayman seawater. Come with a smile and a sense of adventure, you won't regret it. We will 100% be back for more.My son (9) and I (40) did our first lesson today. We had an amazing day, learned a lot and got to surf! Cannot ask for anything more than that. We may even head out again Friday .... thank you guys, good times!

It was an amazing overall experience. Jhon the owner was great with communication during the booking process. I was very impressed as to how honest he was about having the perfect conditions for learning. He is not about just making money off tourists but getting the best out of the experience. The extent of the safety precautions was great. Will the instructor was great! I very highly recommend this company!Jhon, the owner, was very accommodating.
