Kiteboarding Travel Guide: Langebaan South Africa - Destinations EP 17
Welcome to Destinations your one stop kiteboarding video travel guide. If you have any questions when planning your trip, don't hesitate to reach out.
When we think of South Africa, the images that typically come to mind are incredible wildlife roaming the grassy plains or the sparkling city of Cape Town. But only 90 minutes drive up the coast is a holiday haven with a beautiful blue lagoon.
In this edition of Destinations, we're visiting Langebaan, South Africa.
In South Africa's Western Cape, there are kite spots all along the coast. However, few locations bring the warm water and all level friendly conditions of Langebaan. This dreamy kite Destination is complete with a relaxed small town vibe along the lagoon beachfront. Langebaan is the perfect blend of kite trip and beach holiday. If you're looking for a family friendly location where you can still get in some epic sessions, Langebaan is the place to go.
In this blog, we'll cover everything you need to know about kiteboarding in Langebaan. Scroll down past the kite spot guide to find out travel tips and advice for this beautiful holiday spot.

Kitesurfing Cape Town, South Africa - Wind | Water | Wild - - Ep. 03: Langebaan
Wind Water Wild is a four part series highlighting kitesurfing in stunning South Africa. From the wild west coast to the southern tip of the continent, we dive into the remarkable yet formidable natural conditions in the Western Cape. Cape Town local Luke McGillewie takes you on an incredible journey in this video series produced by Madic Media. We're searching for the perfect wave where the Pacific and Atlantic ocean meet, experiencing close encounters with wildlife in the heathlands, sending insane airs at Kite Beach (home of the Red Bull King of the Air), and clinking glasses after a day well spent with the local kiteboarding community.
Kiteboarding in South Africa can get pretty crazy - and not always in the best ways! When the crowds and conditions at Blouberg's Kite Beach get to be too much, it's time for another escape. In this episode of Wind Water Wild, Luke and his crew head into the wild West Coast National Park to kite the blue lagoon of Langebaan.
We go to Langebaan to chill out, have some fun, and try new things. Not every session has to be a serious one. We always leave the water laughing!
The warm, clear water of Langebaan's lagoons make for ideal conditions for a kitesurfing escape with friends. Kicking back on the beach, goofing around in the water, and pushing each other to progress. Not to mention the incredible wildlife nearby. Driving to this spot always feels like a bit of a safari!
In Langebaan, you can ride all day long if you have the right gear. On this day, we spent the morning riding freestyle, the afternoon lull on the foil, and a sunset session hitting the waves. As always, the day ends with beers and a braai!
After an epic weekend in Langebaan, it's time to head back to Cape Town for a crazy downwinder with the crew... After all, that's what kiteboarding in South Africa is all about! Stay tuned for the last and final episode of Wind Water Wild.
Riders Featured: Luke McGillewie, Alessandro D'Ambrosio, and Rose Bungener

Kite Surfing, Windtown Hotel & Kite School, Langebaan, South Africa
Kite Surfing, Windtown Hotel & Kite School, Langebaan, South Africa
Having had a couple of bad experiences learning to kite surf in Europe, I booked into some proper lessons with the Kite School at Langebann run by Windtown SA Hotel & Spa. They operate a really good school with IKO qualified kite instructors and do small group / one on one teaching.
I had 3 one on one lessons with them and I was up and running, with a fourth lesson just for supervision purposes. The lessons were safe and the instruction was really good, with no pressure and with a big emphasis on safety.
The two main locations for the lessons are Main Beach Langebaan (3 min walk from hotel) or Shark Bay in the Lagoon of the West Coast National park (4 min drive).
This film shows some of the progression I have made since at both locations and I am able to now kite surf with my partner.
Thanks to all the team at Windtown SA Kite School !

Shark Bay + Main Beach = ULTIMATE kite sessions Langebaan!
This video will give you a good perspective on the kite spots in Langebaan, South Africa. Usually, the wind only starts later in the day but on this day the wind was solid from early and as it coincided with high tide in the lagoon we managed to do an early morning session at Shark Bay - so Lisa could get some practice in. Later in the day, the wind was absolutely storming at Main Beach and I managed to squeeze in a quick session as well! This is a great place for kiting as the wind is super predictable during summer months.
