It's the best Mauritian school for wingfoil, the trendy board sport, a subtle combination of SUP and kiteboarding, practiced with a small board equipped with a foil (to fly above the water) and a wing (or directional wing not connected to the board, held by a boom or handles). Learning is relatively quick and easy, especially under the guidance of Jean de Falbaire (Mauritius champion) and his instructors.
Less well known than Le Morne to the south-west or the Anse la Raie lagoon to the north, and much less frequented (which is one of its assets), the Pointe d'Esny-Mahébourg spot is nevertheless ideal for wingfoil and board sports in general. We're on the largest lagoon in Mauritius, a huge body of water blessed with steady winds and rarely more than two meters deep. Foil sailors love it and often find themselves in the shallow end of the lagoon, known as the pool, which has hosted the Hydrofoil Pro Tour on several occasions.
The conditions are ideal for beginners, but also for those wishing to progress, or simply to have a good time, particularly during the downwinds and multi-hour foiling expeditions offered by the club, which is delighted to be able to offer "a 30-kilometer edge"!
Of course, you can rent equipment on site and test out the latest from Duotone. If the wind sulks and/or the weather is gloomy, the center offers several alternative activities: SUP, wakeboarding, wakefoiling.

This time the team had the great reponsability of teaching my girls (11 and 12 years old). Instructors have an individual boat, so you have a dedicated person for your course. Lessons from a boat are the most efficient and safe since you are in the water away from any obstacles. When you have gone down-wind; the boat takes you back up-wind so you can start kitesurfing again in a matter of minutes no wasting time and precious energy walking back up-wind! Thank you to the team for taking so much care of my children and giving them an experience they will never forget. The entire family wants to come back next year to work on their transitions! Henri be ready!
Matériel récent et performant pour la wing, dépose en bateau de le lagon, et surtout très belle équipe. Merci à Henri, Dominique, Julien et Owen pour le super accueil et les good vibes????
