Rent a windsurfing board on the Ile de Ré and experience an unforgettable moment near La Rochelle!
Would you like to go windsurfing when you come to the Ile de Ré? Then don't hesitate to rent one for 2 hours or a day at the du Peu Ragot beach! The perfect opportunity to enjoy a sporty moment on the waves! Affiliated to the French Sailing Federation and founded by sailing champions, Antoine Albeau's school is the best place to rent a quality windsurf!
There are three options for renting your windsurfing board: standard, intermediate or prestige. Which one should you choose? Well, that will depend mainly on your level. The standard board is ideal for beginners as it is optimised for more stability and therefore less speed. The intermediate board is more suitable for a person with some experience and can for example be used to get back into windsurfing after a while. Finally, the prestige board is suitable for the more experienced. Thinner and more manoeuvrable, it will allow you to go faster while it will be much more difficult to keep your balance. Now that you know which board to choose, all you have to do is decide on the rental time.
By choosing the right board for your level, you will be able to enjoy your windsurfing rental near La Rochelle. If you want to try windsurfing before you buy, if you only practice this sport occasionally or if you are travelling, renting is a perfect option for you!
