Why you'll love kitesurfing in Tulum!
Tulum Kitesurf Holidays
Tulum is just 2 hours South of Cancun, best known for its 'cool beach and party scene'. However, the South end of the Tulum stretch, away from the beach bars and all-day music, is a tranquil paradise, home to some truly stunning beachfront properties. Many hotels are adult-only, but you can still take a family here in the right location. Due to the very high demand for rooms here in the high season, prices can be quite high when compared to other parts of Mexico, but it is very important to get the correct property in the correct location.
Kitesurfing in Tulum is not ideal for beginners, as the mostly onshore wind often creates quite wavey conditions. We recommend Tulum for independent kitesurfers, or at least those who do not mind some small waves.

Yucatan Peninsula - off the beaten track
From £2,500 ppHead away from the big tourist resorts that some of the Maya Riviera coast is known for, and head inland and North; there is a rich culture filled with history and wild nature. This suggested tour includes a mixture of Mayan ruins and cenotes with two historical towns, finishing with an exceptional, yet less known, kitesurf / Wingfoil beach in El Cuyo, right up in the very North. As with all these tours, they are tailor-made just for you, so this is just an example. Please speak to one of our Mexico travel experts to start planning your Mexico adventure.

Want to explore the rest of Mexico?
Our top recommended hotels across Mexico — on and off the water — perfect to weave into a tailor-made tour with your Tulum stay.
We lose sleep so you don’t.
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.
