“Great kiteboarding spot on isla verde”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2013

My brother and I had a super time kiteboarding at the 15 knots shop/school. Juan Carlos and Felix couldn't have been nicer. Whatever you need: lessons, gear, air, tips, or just hanging around, 15 knots is the spot! The other kiters on the beach in front of 15 knots were a lot of fun too. I can't wait to get... More

Thanks Katie. The pictures came out great. Especially when you were getting on the board looking straight to the camera that was on the center lines.

“Great learning experience, great staff and equipment.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2012

I reached out to Juan Carlos for lessons and set up a 2 hour session. The instructor assigned to me was very knowledgeable and patient with me. 15 Knots stocks very up to date equipment and has a selection for all levels. I will be back soon to rent equipment from 15 Knots!!
