Kite Surfing! A fantastic new hobby to add to the ever growing list ;-)

After getting married on the 28th May 2016, Charlotte and I decided on a 2 week honeymoon to Mauritius at the beginning of July.

This was after many discussions about where to go, somewhere hot, somewhere with beaches, somewhere to relax etc. Importantly for me I also wanted somewhere I/we could do activities. Charlotte found Mauritius and it fitted the bill excellently. She proposed the idea to me by simply mentioning that it is one of the best places in the world to wind and kite surf – so obviously I was sold! Mauritius is one of the best places for wind and kite surfing in the world as the conditions are ideal with flat, shallow water as the island is surrounded by a lagoon, and great wind. This makes it ideal for beginners as well as more experienced kite surfers so of course I could not go to Mauritius and not learn how to kite surf! I’ve been wanting to learn to kite surf for years but could not justify the expense of taking lessons in the UK. It was far better value to take lessons in Mauritius and unlike the UK, you cannot complain about the conditions or the weather, and the scenery is just fantastic!
