The Mangrove Island Turtle Tour

  A great place for that 1st step – I’ve seen kite surfers in several different vacation spots but never had the option to take lessons. Being in Providenciales affords a great chance to take lessons on the… read more very flat shallow waters of Long Bay Beach. Kite Provo was great to work with prior to my arrival on island and Mark was a very informative & patient instructor for this group of 1st timers. This was a great experience & introduction to a fun sport.

  Jay was awesome! Really took the time to teach me how to maintain control of the kite under strong wind conditions. I would highly recommend. Shout out to Jerry, too.

  Great tour! The water was beautiful. Chris with SUP PROVO did an outstanding job showing us the wildlife and explaining how this wonderful eco system work. We… read more saw everything the tour promised; baby sharks (only 18 inches long) sea turtles, fish and even a couple of green herons. I would definitely recommend the paddle boards for the best views (SUP PROVO stands for Stand Up Paddle Providenciales), but the kayak worked very well also.

  Baptiste is a great instructor who exhibited great patience! We had zero prior experience and truly enjoyed our time on Long Bay Beach with him. Great equipment and… read more instruction on the most picturesque paradise we have ever seen… We'll be back!

  Instructor was awesome, patient, followed on jet ski, just the right combo of demonstrating and offering tips. Site is exceptional too. Office very organized and flexible.

  This is the second year we wen to Kite Provo and had a wonderful time improving our kiting while minimizing frustration Mark was fantastic as an instructor and Astro was… read more a wonderful Supervision jet ski Meister, who by the way is hysterical if you ask him about winging vs kiting. Both were right there if you had any problems.

By the way, since our family of 8 ranged from my 91 year old mother to 25 year old kids, we stayed at Club Med and had all our meals together. Then with a rental car four of us would drive the 7 minutes to Long Bay for kiting each day. It worked out really well.

  Best kiteboarding lessons! – It’s paradise for beginners or those who give it a last shot. After so many unsuccessful classes in so many countries around the world, it’s where I finally got it.… read more Thanks to Allan and Mawi!!!! Talented, kind and patient kiteboarding instructors!

  BEST Kitesurfing and Mangrove Tour Experience!  – This place deserves more than 5 stars! Both my kids did private lessons over Spring Break with Mati and Julie. They are both high school athletes and have a lot… read more of experience with MANY different kinds instructors and both said they were amazing instructors. The kids ended up going back for privates 2 more days (would have been 3 but there was no wind!) My husband even ended up doing a private with Antek because he was so impressed. All 3 had such a great time. Our biggest regret is not doing lessons the entire week we were in Turks and Caicos. And MY biggest regret is not joining in on the fun. The staff is super friendly. Don’t look anywhere else. These folks are the real deal. Also do the Mangrove Tour through Kite Provo. Mark, who is also a kiteboarding instructor, led this tour and it was FANTASTIC!

  I had 5 two-hour lessons with the Kite Provo team in early December 2021 as a beginner kite boarder. Kite boarding can have a steep learning curve, especially for older… read more guys like me. With their excellent teaching (and a lot of patience), I got up during the 4th session, and look forward to moving beyond beginner stage. I booked my lessons directly with them through their site. Here is the thank you note I sent: Dear Chris, Kristen, SJ, Mawi, Astro, and Jerry (and everyone at Kite Provo): Thank you so much for doing a wonderful job helping me struggle through being a beginner kiteboarder. I am so impressed by the quality of your teaching, your patience, kindness, and care in making sure things get done right even with the inevitable chaos all around. I very much look forward to trying to go to the next level as soon as I can.

  Kiteboarding lesson – Great instructor, setting, weather and equipment for kiteboarding. Jay did an excellent job reviewing principles and moving through the lesson at our pace. Did a three hour… read more bring a friend lesson which brought us up to the point of rudimentary kite control and just starting to get up on the board. Left us wanting to return for the next step. Will be going back for more.

  Turtles! – We booked a paddle boarding tour from 8:15-10:15am. After a long paddle across the channel, we made it to the mangroves and saw all kinds of wildlife: conch, lemon… read more sharks, and many sea turtles. It was really amazing.

  Come here FIRST! Can’t imagine a better kiteboarding experience. – I can’t imagine a better program, location and instructor. I started in Dominican Republic, then Antigua, and finally Kite Provo in TCI. Knowing what I know now, I… read more would have skipped the first two. I progressed more in 1 day w/Mark at Kite Provo, than the others combined. Mark is not only a great kite-boarder and “natural” teacher, he is a great guy and genuinely enjoys watching you progress!

Their process is unique. Because of the water depth, the instructor is out there with you. No shouting from the beach. AND, they can see your form up close to provide great immediate feedback. They are also able to demonstrate for you, right there.

You could not design a better location to learn and progress : perfect winds; perfect depth; flat water. Tie that with great instructors, and you not only progress quickly, but have fun doing it!

  This is the place to learn kiteboarding! – 1. Lessons were easy to book! Questions were quickly addressed and directions to the kiteboarding location were very detailed and easy to understand.
2. The location can not be… read more beat! Nice sandy beach, beautiful warm clear shallow water, small waves, lots of space, uncrowded, and most importantlywind.
3. It was the most amazing and fun experience I’ve ever had!

I showed up with a few trials under my belt, but had never gotten up. Luckily, I was paired up with Mark as my instructor. He was extremely patient and had a great sense of humor which made every lesson a positive learning experience, with the perfect balance of professionalism and fun.

Mark was eager to share his love for kiting and knows how to get you to fly (even if you lack natural grace and finesse like me). I progressed from face planting to successful waterstarts and riding across the water. He even took some pictures and videos for me so I have proof!

I just can’t recommend Mark enough! He was so easy to get along with and enjoying his company in addition to the instruction took the experience to the highest level. I can’t wait to come back!

  Super positive wingfoil experience at Kite Provo with Mati: : patient, knowledgeable coaching, flexible with conditions – We booked wingfoil lessons with Mati at Kite Provo and couldn’t be happier. Mati is a fantastic instructor: calm, extremely patient, and genuinely skilled at breaking things down step-by-step so… read more you make progress without feeling rushed. He was also very flexible, adapting the lesson plan to the conditions and to our level, which made the whole experience feel personalized rather than “one size fits all.”

Kite Provo was also great to deal with overall. They were very responsive, super honest, and straightforward about what was realistic for us to achieve. The equipment was high-quality and well maintained, which made a big difference for confidence and safety.

If you’re considering learning wingfoiling or leveling up, I can only recommend them. Huge thanks to Mati. My brother and I are leaving with real skills and a clear plan to keep improving.

  3 friends and I went paddleboarding through the mangroves and it was beautiful. We saw tons of turtles and our guides were great!
