Kite Buggy and Landboarding in Newquay Cornwall is the best location for this activity in Cornwall.
Being based in Newquay we offer Kite Buggy lessons everyday at Watergate Bay beach. The open sands of the 2 mile long beach enables us to offer brilliant lessons for kite buggy and landboard from beginner to advanced level.
Kite Buggy and Landboarding lessons in Newquay are unfortunately tide and wind dependant. Using the beach means that we need the tide to be low or at least going out. It also means that we need wind that comes from the sea in order to run a successful lesson. The high cliffs of Watergate Bay mean that any form of easterly wind means that the beach is sheltered from the wind. However we are lucky in Cornwall to have predominent winds from the south west, enabling great lessons to take place most of the time.
Kite Buggy and Kite Landboarding is also available at Gwithian, Perranporth, Par, Padstow, Cornwall.
