Spots Visited

Suited To

This trip is suitable for intermediate to expert wingfoil, windfoil and windsurfer (please note: we currently do not offer lessons or tuition). Due to the nature of the sailing locations, we can usually find sheltered areas for less experienced people. At the same time, more experienced people can be out blasting and playing in the rolling swells and waves. We will point you to the best spot for your skill level. For keen surfers: The world famous break of Ahipara / Shipwreck Bay is only a 50 minutes drive from our accommodation!

Accommodation

What to expect

You are taken on a luxury 4 nights / three day fully catered windsurfing / winging (foiling) retreat in the Far North or New Zealand’s north island. The timing of our trips are tailored to the ideal weather conditions, maximising your water time.

Your stunning accommodation

Premium luxury beachfront accommodation, featuring 4 generous double bedrooms, each of them with their own ensuite as well as 2 rooms with 4 single beds each. 3 lounges (2 of them with a fireplace) and a big central courtyard (also with a fireplace) offer plenty of space to hang out and soak up the stunning views.

Your wholesome catering

It starts with a continental breakfast, locally baked breads and freshly brewed coffee (or tea!). A hearty lunch is individually packed to allow you freedom to roam. The day finishes with a wholesome meal followed by desert and a lot of tall stories!

Getting There

Your trip is self-drive

We respect your independence throughout the sufari so you are provided with a hearty lunch individually packed each day. You are provided with spot location, weather condition advice, and we maintain contact with you even if you choose an alternate location to explore. You are not treated like a school group nor do we guide your every movement. We ensure you are at the right place at the right time. It is however ultimately your judgement on your ability to sail in the presented conditions.

Itinerary

Where can you sail

The Karikari Pensinsula offers a variety of great spots for freeriding, foiling, speed runs, winging and wavesailing in many different conditions. No matter which direction the wind blows.

Rangiputa Beach

Well known for its beautiful foiling and freeride conditions with its unbelievable clear water. There is an awesome speed-run if the tide and wind direction are right and you want to test you and your gear!

Tokerau Beach

A long, curved, sandy beach that can get nice waves in Easterlies. It’s very forgiving and perfect for your first steps wavesailing. The top end is usually fairly sheltered from wind and waves, whereas the southern end can get pretty big and wild. You can choose!

Coopers Beach

Right outside our accommodation you find Coopers Beach. Rig on the lawn and walk down a few steps to the golden sandy beach. Coopers offers excellent foiling and freeride conditions and can also produce beautiful rolling swells.
