The Bay Area is an incredible place to kite. There is wind almost everyday from March through October, with a variety of terrain. You can wave ride at the famous Waddell Creek, kite endless miles under the Golden Gate Bridge, or camp out at Sherman Island with other kiter enthusiasts.

Newbies often have a hard time getting into kiting here. The few suitable places for learning don't get consistent wind, and schools usually are booked several weeks in advance. The cost for entry is also another consideration.

Days In The Bay conducts group land training lessons with certified and reputable instructors from the area. Once you've completed your land training, you can decide if kiteboarding is for you!
