Wander down the beaches
in Montalto di Castro and Tarquinia
and you'll find many a chance to learn
how to windsurf, surf and kitesurf
in the Summer.
Although the Mediterranean doesn't
exactly offer the same opportunities
as Sydney's Bondai Beach for surfing
ehthusiasts, there's always a breeze
of the sea in the afternoon and often
a strong Northerly wind (the dreaded
"tramontana" in the Winter
months) for the pleasure of kitesurfing
and windsurfing fans.
Individual lessons with an expert
at the beginning of the course. Equipment:
Optimist.
The basic course consists of six 1-hour
lessons.
Lesson 1: theory of sailing, windsurfing
terminology and equipment and a go
on the simulator.
Lessons 2-5: in water, with an individual
trainer.
Health certificate required.
