Come to Far North Queensland Austraila and learn to Kitesurf on the beautiful Four Mile Beach, located in the resort town of Port Douglas. Four Mile Beach is regarded as the best kitesurfing locations in Australia during the winter months, for both beginners and advanced riders.

For learners, you have a long, wide beach with plenty of shallow water, no surrounding hazardous obstacles expect for palm trees, steady cross/on-shore winds AND heaps of flat water for your first ride!

For intermediate and advanced riders, there is flat water, small waves on the sand bars which offer perfect ramps for jumping and further down the beach you will find nice waves for wave style kiting.

Four Mile Beach is also the perfect stepping stone for great down-winders and offshore kiting adventures to Low Isles, the Outer Reef and surrounding islands and cays of the Great Barrier Reef.

Port Douglas offers an ideal tropical climate (mid twenties during the day) in the Australian winter when the south easterly trade winds are at their best (May - October). Port Douglas is a thriving resort town that offers plenty of other activities and is also the gateway to some of the best diving, snorkeling and fishing locations in Oz.  

WindSwell has experienced IKO instructors to accommodate all levels of riders in private or group lessons. All instructors are qualified in first aid and there is a safety boat and first aid kit on standby.

All lessons are safe, progressive, fun and good value for money. Our aim is to make our students competent, independent kitesurfers, certifying all our students with the IKO Kiteboarder Card.

Using the latest kite surfing gear, all students are equipped with flotation vests, wetsuits, and helmets. New this year is the Instructor/Student helmet-cam radio communications to aid in faster learning.

Board skill sessions are offered behind our kitesurfing support boat NoSwell, which is also used for wakeboarding on no wind days.

We also offer downwind and Outer Reef and Island kitesurfing expeditions.

WindSwell operates 7 days a week during the trade wind season (May - Oct), on call during the quite season.
