⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally got up on the board! I had tried kitesurfing lessons years ago in strong waves and gave up because it was too scary. Meeting Alex at Spinosa Beach changed everything. The water at Mar Menor is shallow and flat, which made me feel so safe. Alex’s method is totally different—no boring classroom theory, we were in the water having fun immediately. I’m finally riding!
Safe, funny, and effective. I was nervous about the power of the kite, but Alex has a way of making you relax instantly. He is hilarious, but 100% focused on safety. Learning at Los Narejos was the perfect choice because you can stand up in the water. I booked the 15-minute free lesson and ended up staying for a whole week of training!.
The 'Alex Method' actually works.
I’ve been stuck at the 'body dragging' stage for months after taking lessons at another school. Alex saw my mistake in the first 5 minutes. His teaching style is unique, he doesn't just tell you what to do; he makes you feel how the kite flies. If you want to stop wasting time and actually start kitesurfing, go to Alex.
Por fin perdí el miedo! Había intentado aprender en otros sitios con muchas olas y me daba pánico. La playa de Spinosa en Los Narejos es otro mundo: agua plana y haces pie en todo momento. Eso, sumado a la paciencia de Alex, hizo que me relajara y disfrutara desde el minuto uno. Su método no te agobia con teoría innecesaria, vas directo a la diversión. Gracias Alex!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best family holiday ever. We wanted our 12 and 14-year-olds to try something new. Alex is a legend with kids! He made sure they were safe at all times but kept the 'fun factor' high. The mobile school setup was great; we just met at the spot in Los Narejos and got straight into it. The kids are now addicted to kitesports.

Learned from a Legend. I’m already an independent rider but wanted to learn how to jump higher and land smoother. You can tell Alex has been doing this for 35 years. He gave me two small tips on my board edge and kite position that added 2 meters to my jumps instantly. The wind at Mar Menor is unparalleled for progression.

Un crack con los niños. Queríamos que nuestro hijo de 13 años probara el kitesurf, pero nos preocupaba la seguridad. Alex es un fenómeno enseñando a jóvenes; sabe exactamente cómo mantenerlos seguros mientras se lo pasan en grande. Ver a mi hijo manejando la cometa con esa confianza en el Mar Menor fue lo mejor de las vacaciones. Repetiremos seguro.
Perfektes Revier für Anfänger. Wir haben schon lange nach einem Ort gesucht, um sicher Kitesurfen zu lernen. Das Mar Menor bei Los Narejos ist genial, weil das Wasser flach ist und man überall stehen kann. Alex hat eine super Art zu unterrichten – sehr entspannt, aber immer mit Fokus auf Sicherheit. Nach nur wenigen Stunden hatten wir die ersten Erfolge. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Safe and gentle for older learners. I'm in my 50s and thought kitesurfing was only for the young athletic kids. Alex proved me wrong. The shallow water at Los Narejos meant no struggling to swim, and Alex’s teaching style is so calm and encouraging. I learned at my own pace without any pressure or fear of injury. Highly recommended for anyone who thinks they are 'too old' to start!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 35 años de experiencia se notan. Llevaba meses estancado, intentando saltar más alto pero aterrizando mal. Reservé una clase privada con Alex y en 20 minutos corrigió un vicio que tenía en la posición de la barra. El viento constante del Mar Menor es ideal para perfeccionar trucos. Si quieres progresar de verdad y dejar de perder el tiempo, este es el lugar.

Endlich Fortschritte! Ich hatte schon fast aufgegeben, weil ich bei anderen Kiteschulen nur endlose Theorie hatte. Alex ist anders. Seine Methode ist praxisnah und bringt sofort Spaß. Am Spinosa Beach hatten wir tolle Windbedingungen und dank Alex’ Erfahrung bin ich endlich sicher auf dem Board. Wer wirklich lernen will, ohne Zeit zu verschwenden, muss zu Alex gehen.

Don't waste time with group lessons. I wasted so much money on group lessons elsewhere where I was mostly just standing on the beach watching others. With Alex at Spinosa Beach, it was 100% focus on me. The private 'one-on-one' approach combined with the flat water conditions meant I learned more in two hours than I did in three days at other schools. Best investment I've made.
