Learn Windsurfing with US
Over the last 14 years we have successfully taught windsurfing to dozens of girls, men, women, kids and even elderly people.
Velipoje beach is Albania’s paradise for learning and practicing windsurfing. The large, protected and well closed bay, and the Vilun lagoon, offer constant flat water throughout the year, excellent for the first steps in windsurfing. The water conditions are complemented by a warm climate which offers neoprene-free windsurfing starting from early March till November, and steady side-shore or onshore winds, ideal for learning windsurfing.
We have a full range of windsurfing equipment for beginners to suit the needs for everyone.

All Ages 5 - 75
Windsurfing is a great way for people of any age to stay in shape and enjoy the fun. The advancing technology now enables windsurfing for every age, with kids starting as early as 7 years old.
The equipment is light-weight and very user friendly. Beginners can learn the fundamentals in just a few hours as windsurfing rigs are much stable. Younger people love the adrenaline rush of blasting at high speeds, freestyling tricks, or racing in competition. There is nothing to compare with sailing across the water with just your board below your feet.
The best time for windsurfing in Velipoje during the summer season are between 1 pm and 6 pm, a period during which the steady thermal wind blows constantly from west at about 15 knots, with wind gusts often exceeding 30 knots. During the morning easterly winds are calmer, although occasionally they blow easily over 25 knots.
