    Description

    Hi, I'm Axel, the owner of a small kitesurfing club and Eco-Surf Camp boutique in Mancora, a cool fishermen's village and surf destination on the northern coast of Peru, near the Ecuadorian border. Here, we enjoy endless summer, with good breezes and waves all year long.

    Our primary offerings include kitesurfing and surfing lessons, and we also have a yoga studio. Our windy season runs from May to December, while the rest of the year is wind-free but still perfect for surfing.

    Our dedicated local team includes Pablo, who teaches kitesurfing and handles kite repairs, as well as Chelita, Juan, and Tania, who assist with the hotel throughout the year.
