I met Britt years ago when I first took an interest in learning this exciting sport. After being away from it for years, I signed up for a lesson this month. What a lovely business and wonderful people! In no time, I was up and sailing. If you want to try your hand at windsurfing, this is the place to go. Five Stars!

I really wish I could give more than 5 stars. North beach is amazing. Karen, graham, and Richard are amazing instructors. In top of that, they are simply amazing humans. Don’t think twice - book them.

Decided to book myself a lesson as I was out in Florida for a friends wedding on my own. My teacher was Richard who was amazing and really spent the time to explain great techniques. I’d never windsurfed before but had sailed. We started on land getting to know the moves and then out onto the water. Once I got my sea legs and built confidence I was on the board and not falling off as much as I was at the start. Richard kept giving me tips throughout the lesson. Three hours was the perfect amount of time to really build confidence and have some decent time on the board. I can’t fault these guys, they were so friendly and welcoming! Would recommend for anyone who has been thinking of trying it but hasn’t!

My husband, teenage son and I took both Windsurfing and wing-surfing lessons on separate days. Richard, our windsurfing instructor is super-chill and friendly. We had some previous windsurfing experience, in the 80s for me, so he had us out on the windsurfers in no time. Graham patiently taught us wingsurfing. We had no experience, and his instruction was extremely helpful. I had my doubts but after one first bad attempt I suddenly got it. We had low wind and he said it is easier to learn when it is a bit more windy.

They teach the lessons at the beautiful Fort de Soto park. At the toll into the park you have to pay 75 cents-quicker if you have exact change-and then turn off immediately and don’t go over the bridge. It’s a sandy road with a bunch of parked cars. The area is perfect for learning it is shallow so easier if you fall in. Richard recommended beach shoes since the sea urchins are out this year.

Overall great experience-I recommend you try it.

Took a lesson from North Beach Windsurfing, first time trying the sport. Richard was great, being a motivated, positive instructor who explained and showed you the key points to remember. It was a smart location with water mostly up to your waste. There's a challenge to standing on a surfboard in the wind on top of the water while controlling the mast, but it's worth the effort, a lot of fun, and something that can be mastered. If you've never done it and like water sports, it certainly an adventure to consider and you'll be glad you did.

Had a 2-hour wing foil lesson with Graham, fantastic instructor, very detailed and patient. The first time I have managed to go upwind with a wing :)

Windsurfing was a great experience! The whole family caught on so fast and easy with the instructors we had! It was challenging for me to get my sea legs, but the instructors were encouraging and supportive to make sure I got the full experience! My husband and kids were sailing up and down the bay with ease! We totally recommend this experience!!

We had a wonderful time and, all 3 of us windsailed on our own by the end of the lesson. We were very grateful how patient and kind our guides were with our 10 year old. They took extra care to encourge him and he soon excelled beyond our expectations. Great experience!

We absolutely loved our wind surfing lessons—the instruction was great, especially when the teacher jumped one to surf with us and give us the feel of windsurfing. None of us had any prior experience. While far from experts, we all were happy to get up and make some great surfing runs and hope to try it again soon.

You all did awesome and we're so glad you braved the unusually cold morning to come out and play with us. Don't wait too long to get out on the water again!
