I've been dreaming about kite surfing for the last 5 years, and now my dream has come true.🙌
At this school, my teacher was Taras, an experienced athlete, coach and just a pleasant positive person who is passionate about his business.
At the 11th hour of the training, I was already calmly getting up and consciously riding a kite - it was wonderful.
Before the trip, Karina contacted me, as I understood the founder of the school (but I could be wrong), and told me in detail how to get to them quickly and not expensive.
While studying at school, pleasant and sincere people gathered, waited for the wind together and spent time.
The receptionist Elena always made delicious coffee and helped with the equipment.
To say that I had a great rest and learned to ride is to say nothing🙌
In half a year, I plan to return and study new elements at this particular school.
And most importantly, I always felt that I was safe with Taras, because it's a pretty extreme sport.
Good luck and prosperity to the school, see you soon

A great place, friendly owners from Russia, pretty fresh equipment, and a lot of it! The prices are no higher than those of the Arabs in the neighborhood, and delicious sweets at the reception :)
The lagoon is very convenient for both kite and wind surf. Guys, thank you for being there, and I wish you a good business! I hope to come back here next year!

My girlfriend and I have long wanted to learn kiting, so we specially went to Sharm.
The choice fell on Candykites immediately, because we saw a lot of positive feedback and received all the necessary primary information from Karina.
The training took place systematically, and two days later I went. On the fourth day, he began to ride confidently and "cut himself."
I recommend the Candykites school to anyone who wants to quickly learn how to ride a kite, get a pleasant conversation, an atmosphere! It is also important that all the equipment is new!
Thank you for the great time spent during the training!

A good spot that opens at 6 if there is wind.
Russian instructors.
There is a place for learning - a large area with a depth where you can walk.
There is enough space for free riding of a large number of boats.

Karina taught us how to skate. She made me fall in love with the beauty of this sport. We agreed in advance, but we did not know what the situation would be with the wind. Therefore, when we arrived, we wrote off again and agreed seriously with the time and date. Our hotel was far from the center, we asked for a taxi to arrange for us to arrive and leave. And so we leave the hotel at the appointed time, and there, instead of the taxi driver, Karina =) The taxi driver let us down and Karina came to pick us up, thank her very much. And thank you for giving us a bunch of theoretical information while driving us to school and back. The equipment is new. The presentation of information is beyond praise. The wind disappeared for a couple of days and we couldn't continue our classes, we were already flying away. But.. Karina and kitesurfing are in our hearts forever. We wish her good luck and success with all our heart

Candy Kites School from Sergey and Karina is a great place. I got up and rode on the board at the 6th hour of classes with Sergey. Sergey explains intelligently and in detail, pays a lot of attention to security in accordance with the IKO rules, helps and tells various useful tricks. Overall, the guys are incredibly positive and customer-oriented. I recommend this place and plan to come again.

I can safely recommend the station for beginners. Very good and responsive instructors. The spot itself is conducive to learning, there is no wave. It blows from morning to lunch)

A great school for beginners who are starting from scratch, but are very serious about kitesurfing!
I'm confident about this, because that's exactly what I am. More precisely, it was 10 hours ago😎
So, the details. I came across a kite about a year ago. Although it is more accurate to write - it was very painful to encounter the beach, where I tried to hold a friend's kite for the first time. Naively believing that it's all easy. Well, I made a beginner's mistake - now I understand it - I pulled the bar on myself, the kite went to the powerzone, throwing me two meters and smacking on the beach. It was in Arzangelsk. I realized that I had to study this thoroughly before I could tack smoothly and beautifully on the water.
Based on the recommendation, I found Karina very easily and enrolled in their courses. Three weeks later, I was already at their school. I took a course for 12 hours, Sergei worked with me, taking into account the wind, and it fell on the fifth day, we honestly worked for 10 hours.
Now, actually, why five stars.
First. It was important for me to get all the necessary safety skills so that the hobby would bring pleasure, and not the cost of equipment and treatment. Sergey paid special attention to this: spot orientation, threat assessment, shooting, bodydrag, and the use of kite-sail technology. I learned to shoot back to automatism. And, I must say, it was useful to me twice during the training itself: once I lost control and I was really pulled, and the second time a dashing elderly Latvian drove into the kite at high speed. Literally on the same days, at a nearby spot, a man was dragged through the reef and as a result, he had a very serious leg injury. He didn't shoot back in time.
Second. Clarity and logic of learning. Karina and Sergey are Russian guys. This is important because you need to quickly learn a certain number of concepts and names. This is convenient, since theory is theory, but everything is learned in practice. And Russian-speaking guardianship gives you more opportunities to master the technique, understand and delve into the details in a short time.
The third. Transparency, correctness, discipline. It's also important to me, I don't like working in an atmosphere of distrust. Sergey kept a precise time and every day we recorded how much we spent per day. It's all fair. The coach has never been late or violated agreements (which I cannot say about myself - I overslept once, I repent). The most correct communication from the coach.
Fourth. Service. For this money, I received a 12-hour course; an excellent, experienced, attentive Russian-speaking coach, all the equipment: from kite to coral, that is, I did not carry anything with me; coffee at the base in unlimited quantities; flexible choice of hours of classes, although, of course, it was limited by the presence of wind; and a bonus trip out of town to a mind-blowing spot ("Maldives", see photo). The latter was not included in the course, this, I suppose, is for the beautiful eyes ;))
To summarize. The main thing is that the goal has been achieved. as a result, I confidently control the kite and make a small tack to the left (I am a snowboarder on my left foot), there is still something to work on to the right. Karina registered me with IKO. Further plans: to hone the technique, and in winter to get up with a kite on a snowboard🏂
Excellent school, thanks a lot to Karina and Sergey for studying, I strongly recommend everyone to use the services of this team 👋🏻

Great and friendly guys! The prices are adequate for this sport (yes, it is not cheap). They are trying to give the maximum, they do not pull out money, moreover, they even spent a little more time with us than was paid for. And with a weak wind, it was recommended not to go, so as not to waste the training. Unfortunately, it was not possible to complete the course, but I am definitely ready to recommend these guys to start training 👍👍👍

They taught me how to ride a kite, I booked a full twelve-hour training course and at the ninth hour I was able to ride on the board myself, I still have three hours to learn how to turn around, I'm waiting for a vacation soon when I can come and continue riding.
I recommend it to everyone

What happiness it is to catch a flight on a kite, to be able to control it as instructor Karina taught me! Her professionalism and the ability to transfer her knowledge helped me in mastering the kite. Thank you, Karina! See you on the Red Sea!
