Very happy with both the kiteboard lessons and bike rental. - I booked lessons and a bike rental through the kite school before I arrive and had a great experience with both. The Manager, Jarne, was very responsive to any questions or issues and made the experience very easy. I took six lessons and the instructor (Stan) was great! He had lots of patience and was very helpful in every aspect of the lessons. By the end of my lessons in Bonaire, I was up on the board and kiting in both directions. I am definately motivated for more lessons at Bonaire Kiteschool next year. I also explored some of the mountain bike trails in the Hato area with bike I rented. The trails were not very well maintained, but the bike worked great.

Lessons with Federico - I had 2 x 3hour lessons with Federico. I loved every second of it. I was kinda stressed that I wouldn’t know how to do it but Federico helped me step by step and made every part enjoyable. He was so knowledgeable about kiting that I literally trusted every word he said to me about kiting, what would work better and little things that would make my learning curve easier. I got a good vibe from the school right from the minute that I walked up to the yellow bus. I’ve never kite surfed or flown kites in my entire life but Federico got me on a board within my first 3 hours and starting to go upwind within my 2nd lesson. His passion for the sport was apparent and he got me excited to continue with the sport. With every mistake I made he could tell me exactly what I did wrong and how to improve or correct my mistake and demonstrated incredibly well. I wish I had more time in Bonaire cause I would have loved to do another lesson with him cause I am certain he would have had me progress! Oh and the best part. He got my first ever ride on a kiteboard on camera(a moment I would otherwise not have been able to capture) and then offered to send it to me. I loved that no matter how far into the sea we went he was always close by with the boat. I would definitely recommend this school and Federico. I couldn’t have asked for it to be any better!

Best Kiteschool in Bonaire - During our stay in Bonaire my friends and I took some kite lessons with Bonaire Kiteschool. It was all good vibes and happy faces 😄😄Best surroundings, people and atmosphere. The instructors were kind, professional and patient. All over a really good experience! We will definitely come back for more.

Learned to kitesurf with excellent instructors - Spent 3 days with kitesurfing lessons in bonaire. Instructors were patient and very knowledgable and all for of us (2 adults and 2 adult kids) got up and cruised around the bay. Joris van Trotsenburg was my personal instructor and he did a great job. Would certainly return to this outfit.

Terrible instruction, did not follow progression - My daughter tore her ACL as the result of poor instruction. The instructor pushed the pace of the lesson in an effort to get her up before she had a full understanding of the basics. After healing she went to a real kite school in Panama, when she came back she realized how poor her Bonaire instructor was. As an outfitter on Bonaire they are inconsiderate on the road toward bikers and other vehicles.
