Armando's Kite Shack

Armando's Kite Shack represents the pioneering spirit of kitesurfing in the Caribbean, being the first kitesurfing school established in the region since 1998. Founded by Armando, who has been teaching watersports his entire life, the school offers a unique guarantee: if you don't learn to ride after their 4-lesson package, you get your money back. Located in Aruba's ideal conditions of flat, shallow water with steady winds, the school provides comprehensive instruction with all kite sizes and board types including twin tips, surfboards, foilboards, and wingfoilboards. When wind conditions are right, they also offer intimate sailing experiences on Hobie-Cat catamarans. The team of experienced instructors, including Colombia and his son, brings decades of experience and passion to every lesson. Their new shop features original beach apparel and the latest kitesurfing gear, making it a complete destination for kite enthusiasts.
