Activity description

Take a private wingsurfing or wingfoil lesson on the Ile de Ré and train in the school of champions, near La Rochelle!

Thanks to this 1.5 hour wingsurfing course, you will soon be able to handle your sail like a champion! Affiliated to the French Sailing Federation and founded by sailing champions, Antoine Albeau's school is the best place to learn sailing sports!

There are two options with this sailing course. You can either decide to go sailing with a foil board or with a paddle board. The foil board is special because it is equipped with a foil, which allows you to glide over the water. It is the ideal board to fly over the water and try to do aerial tricks! By using a paddle board (or a surfboard), you will be able to ride the waves more easily because the board will simply be placed on the water. In short, the paddle board is more suitable for beginners while the foil board is ideal for more experienced riders who want to fly over the water!

With the private lessons offered, you will be trained by excellent instructors! First, you will arrive at the base and drop off your gear. You will be equipped with a wetsuit if needed, a life jacket and all the necessary equipment. You will then leave for your wingsurf or wingfoil course with your instructor by your side. He will be there to advise you throughout the course. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced rider, he will be able to adapt to your level and guide you. When you return to the school, you can debrief and review your progress. The private lesson is a very good solution for a personalized accompaniment, you will leave the school having learned a lot about the discipline!

Located at the beach of Les Prises, the sailing school of La Couarde offers lessons given by qualified and passionate instructors. Moreover, Antoine Albeau's school has more than 47 years of experience in nautical activities! It is truly an emblematic place for water sports lovers!

The Ile de Ré is ideally located near La Rochelle, to which it is linked by a 3 km bridge. Off the coast of Charente-Maritime and south of the Vendée, you will be in the heart of the Bay of Biscay. Perfect for a wingsurfing course near La Rochelle, the beach of Les Prises is a windy place on the island of Ré where the sea is not too rough. In addition, the island is rich in heritage: you'll find two of France's most beautiful villages, lighthouses, fortified ports and picturesque fishing villages.
