Mancora Kitesurfing Holidays
Mancora, like a lot of places we have visited in Peru, is a mixture of stunning and, well, not so stunning! The town of Mancora is quite interesting in terms of small café, restaurants and a few good shops, all very cheap.. There are also quite a lot of cheap accommodation in town to accommodate young travellers passing through. It also tends to be quite dusty as it is a through way for most of the traffic in the area so perhaps not a place you would wish to spend much time. South of the town is a long stretch of very nice beach along which there are a number of good quality accommodations, including some really beautiful small boutique style hotels; it is in this area that we have our carefully selected properties looking out over pristine beaches.
The main attraction of Mancora is the amazing waves for Surf, SUP and Kitesurfing. There are a number of locations along the coast depending on the days conditions and your preferred sport. Mancora is best done with a guide, which we will provide you, to take you to the best locations for what you want to do. Then after a good days watersports back to you relaxing beach front hotel to take in the sunset.
For those that appreciate good food Mancora has a lot to offer both in some of the hotels and also some excellent local restaurants. Mancora is best suited to either individuals looking for some world class watersports or for a romantic getaway.

We take every booking personally. Anything that doesn’t look right, anything that needs chasing — we’re the ones awake worrying about it, so you’re not.
Your money goes into trust
Not into our bank account. It sits with an independent trustee and is only released after you have travelled. If we stopped trading tomorrow it would still be there, and it would come back to you.
We book it all, and then check it
Flights, transfers, the room you actually chose, your lessons. Confirmed before you fly, not arranged when you land. We don’t book the cheapest transfer — drivers who turn up and speak English.
We call you before you go
Documents, visas, kit, anything you’re unsure about. A real conversation with the person who booked it, not an automated reminder.
We’re on WhatsApp the whole time you’re away
Any hour, any country. Flight moved, room not right, lessons cancelled for weather — one number, answered by someone who already knows your booking.
Talk to a Kitesurf travel expert — not a call centre.
Tell us your dates, your level and what a perfect week looks like. We'll come back with a shortlist of spots with the right conditions and the right hotel — usually within one working day.
