Join Extreme Sports Cafe and our team and learn to Kitesurf on the Costa Brava, or in Tarifa, Spain from April through to November every year.Extreme Sports Cafe uses only new Kitesurfing equipment and IKO (International Kite Organisation) qualified kitesurf instructors in our kitesurfing schools, thus ensuring the highest level of instruction in a safe environment.
Furthermore it offers a flying school and a parachute center where training courses and tandem skydives can be booked at any time. Tennis, riding and golf are also naturally offered and are very popular. The countryside around Empuriabrava is very varied and is perfect for walking and exploring. There are countless romantic villages, cathedrals, rivers, lakes and pine forests, which have helped to inspire so many painters. Dali, Picasso, Miro are just a few of the most famous who warrant a mention. Therefore, it is worth a visit to some of the many beautiful museums. The unique area close to the Pyrenees and Barcelona makes it impossible to be bored even on a cloudy day. A state of the art bowling hall, a water park, a fitness centre and health farm as well as a butterfly park are some of the free time activities. Our kitesurfing school in Tarifa is not far from Seville where we also offer AFF Skydiving courses and Tandem Jumps...
We can advise and help book the nicest local hotels which offer great rates for skydivers and kitesurfers coming to town with us. We can also help you arrange exclusive accommodation in local villas and houses at great rates for individuals as well as families, or groups of friends who want to share.
Our favourite house is located in the centre of Empuriabrava, in a quiet, lush, exclusive residential area. Everything is, however, easily accessible over three bridges (10 mins), the shopping zone, beach and harbour. The house consists of 4 apartments, with a beautifully spacious garden, a big swimming pool, barbecue area, and a lawn with sun beds. 4-room
apartment for up to 4 persons, approx 70 square meters. We also have an apartment block... The apartment block is quietly located, although it is not far from the main shopping street with its boutiques, bars and restaurants. Within the building itself you can find our restaurant "Oasis", which for many years has been enjoyed by skydivers, kitesurfers and people on holiday in this magical town by the sea. In Tarifa we provide a nice simple house with 3 bedrooms, huge garden, equipment shed, shared bathroom, kitchen, living room, it’s simple clean and tidy. We are only a 20-minute drive from Cadiz. If you prefer a villa we can help arrange this too. Later in the season we move to Conil to catch the best conditions.. Here is a handy site for accommodation there...
Extreme Sports Cafe's kitesurfing school in Tarifa is open until the end of October, and from a little earlier in the season. At the end of October we up camp and head over to Koh Samui Thailand for a 1st November start there....

By Train / Bus Costa Brava - Take the train to Figueres station, there you can either take the bus to Empuriabrava (from the bus station next to the train), or you can take a taxi (20€). Tarifa - For this though you will have to first get to Malaga, short trip by train and then change again in Algeciras. By Air Costa Brava - By air you can fly to Barcelona, Girona or Perpignan (France) for the Costa Brava. The companies Easyjet, Ryanair, Jet2 and even British Airways (If you really want to use an overpriced, low service quality airline!) all offer flights at discount prices and Sarfa buses run between airports and Empuriabrava. Tarifa - Malaga airport is one of the busiest in the world for tourist traffic. This has brought all the costs down dramatically and increased the services available.
