Summer kite clinics
Vella Island adventures
During the summer season (May–October), the wind in Kalpitiya averages 20–25 knots, and our summer clinics make the most of the incredible conditions at Vella Island. These sessions typically include overnight camping trips to the island (simple but comfortable) for riders looking to immerse themselves fully in a unique flatwater environment.
At Vella Island you’ll enjoy long, buttery-flat sections just meters from your tent—perfect for building confidence, landing your first big jumps, progressing freestyle moves, and maximizing time on the water. With spectacular sunset and sunrise sessions and very little light pollution, it’s a paradise for focused progression and unforgettable kite adventures.
Winter kite clinics
Lagoon & local spots
In the winter season (mid‑December to late February) the wind picks up around midday and often blows until sunset, typically 15–20 knots. The north‑westerly wind direction makes it possible to kite directly in front of Kitesurfing Lanka, with consistent conditions in Kalpitiya Lagoon.
Winter clinics focus not only on technique and progression, but also on making the most of lagoon and local everyday spots. If the wind arrives later in the day, there are plenty of alternative activities—like diving, dolphin and whale watching, yoga, or free social sessions—so your camp experience stays rich and varied.
