Kite camp Tunisia - Kiting in the Djerba lagoon

In the lagoon with sandy bottom, standing area and constant sideshore wind you can take your first steps or your first experiences on the kite or improve your level.

As soon as the air starts to move, we start towards the water, because practice is a very important factor to us. As long as you have energy and are not afraid of a sunstroke, you can stay on the water and work on your kite skills.

Of course, within a week with LakeUnited there are also various workshops that give you a comprehensive insight into the world of kitesurfing.

We cannot list the number of hours here, because you get full support from us this week. We design our program according to the circumstances. Since our goal is your maximum progress, you can look forward to a brilliant time with many successes.

LakeUnited's events are always educational. Because our goal is that you can take as much as possible with you.

We place great value on practice and can now look back on more than 15 years of training experience in kitesurfing. Nevertheless, we are constantly evolving by continuously revising our concepts.

After all, there is not just one way, because everyone learns differently and needs different inputs. In addition, one or the other may already have made mistakes that need to be specifically corrected 

We use different approaches to improve your skills on the water and on the kite. We will hold several workshops and also offer video analyzes - if everything goes well, even with a projector in the evening. This has already proven itself many times! Because we love detailed work, we can draw your attention to little things that others don't even see. Often, just a few small changes lead to the desired success and you enjoy more fun and safety on the water. 

In our high-quality kite lessons, we clearly see our strength in empathy and in working on a personal level. With empathy and a lot of fun, we will pick you up right where you are. This applies to beginners as well as professionals, after all, we have already trained some kite instructors in our academy.

You travel by plane to Djerba-Zarzis (DJE).

Tunis Air, Swiss Air and some package tour providers offer direct flights from the larger cities in Central Europe.

We'll rent cars at the airport (not included in the camp price). This way, we'll be mobile and can also drive to different spots.

Travel time from the airport to the accommodation: approx. 1 hour and 15 minutes
Travel time from the accommodation to the kite station: approx. 30 minutes

In our hotel, we offer half-board, and you'll be well taken care of with generous buffets in the morning and evening. Everything is homemade and lovingly prepared here.

At the kitebeach we can organize and have fruit and sandwiches delivered if required. 

We live in a family-run apartment complex that leaves nothing to be desired in terms of luxury and comfort. Our bungalows are located around the centrally located pool, each with two rooms (single, double, or triple occupancy possible).

The rooms are very spacious and lovingly furnished by our host family, who take care of everything we need.

We'll drive to the kitesurfing spot in a rental car. We'll organize carpools in advance via our WhatsApp group.

So you can try things out and don't have to sit around waiting for better wind, we're offering our equipment in a package deal. Our equipment rental includes kites and boards. 

Whether you're kiting on land or on the water, in strong or light winds – we have the right equipment for you! This means you can travel much more carefree, use twin-tip or waveboards as you please, and enjoy new kites from top brands like Flysurfer, Core, Ozone, Harlem, or Duotone, and spend more time on the water overall.

Good to know: Harness and neoprene equipment

If you don't have your own harness or want to try one out, let us know, and we'll pack the right one for you to rent. By the way, the rental fee will be credited towards the purchase price if you keep the harness after the camp.

If you don't have your own wetsuit or other neoprene equipment, we're happy to advise you or help you rent one on-site.

Travel insurance: We are not insurance agents, but we are committed to offering you comprehensive travel insurance. And honestly, cancellation and travel insurance makes sense. You can choose an insurance package as part of your booking.

Equipment insurance: With the insurance tool of the Association of German Water Sports Schools (VDWS) you are insured against damage to your own equipment or to the rental equipment. This has often saved us stress, which is why we definitely recommend the VDWS Safety Tool! You can find more information about this http://safetytool.de/VY99056

Passport: To enter Tunisia, the passport must be valid for at least 6 months.

Visa: In Tunisia, entry is possible for up to 4 months without a visa

Change money: It is not necessary to change money in advance. A lot of things can be paid in euros, but there are also ATMs on site. 

Internet: The hotel offers (moderately fast) internet plans. However, it is recommended to get a SIM card upon entry or an e-SIM in advance. 

How much time do we spend on the water?
We are known for getting the most out of it and do not stick to fixed course times. You can kite for as long as you want, can or until the sun goes down.

How are the groups adapted to my level?
The group is supervised by a total of 3 coaches (if the camp is fully booked). In this way, we can group the participants into homogeneous groups according to their level and address their current level and individual goals.

I eat vegetarian/vegan, is that possible there?
Vegetarian is no problem. Vegan is also possible (with restrictions), but we cannot guarantee the content of some dishes. To be on the safe side, we recommend taking vegan food with you. 

Do I need a wetsuit?
We recommend a 3/2 wetsuit or a shorty 

How do we organize rental cars?
We organize carpools in advance in our WhatsApp group and coordinate the rental of the cars together.

How does it work with (mobile) internet?
It's best to get a SIM card when you enter the country (airport) or an E-SIM in advance. 

Can my partner (not a kiter) come with me too?
Yes, of course.
