Fri 31st Oct, 2025 @ 1:52 pm
Join Aaron Hadlow and Lewis Crathern for an exclusive 10-day kiteboarding trip to Cape Town with KiteBase UK. Ride from your beachfront villa, watch Red Bull King of the Air live, and experience the world’s best kite destination in true pro style. Only 10 spots available — this is your chance to ride, learn, and live the dream.
Cape Town: The World’s Kiteboarding Capital
If you’ve ever dreamed of riding alongside your kiteboarding heroes, this is your chance to make it happen. This winter, KiteBase UK is offering a one-of-a-kind Cape Town kite trip designed for riders who want more than just sessions on the water.
From November 22nd to December 2nd, 2025, only ten riders will join the Ride with the Pros experience — living and riding from an exclusive beachfront villa at Sunset Beach, just minutes from Kite Beach, Blouberg.
Expect constant wind, legendary spots, and the chance to hang with two of the sport’s biggest names.
More Than a Kite Camp
Cape Town’s reputation as the world’s kiting capital is well-earned — wind, waves, and that unmistakable energy that pulls riders back year after year. But Ride with the Pros isn’t your typical kite camp. It’s a fully hosted experience that blends world-class kiting, progression, and a relaxed Cape Town lifestyle.
“We wanted to create something that goes beyond a normal kite holiday,” says KiteBase founder David Donald. “It’s about bringing riders together in a small, tight-knit group and giving them access to experiences you usually only dream about — from riding with Aaron and Lewis to watching King of the Air live.”
Ride with Aaron Hadlow and Lewis Crathern
Two days of the trip are dedicated to Pro-Hosted Days, where you’ll learn, ride, and hang out with kiteboarding legends Aaron Hadlow and Lewis Crathern.
- Aaron Hadlow Day: Ride and road trip with the 5x World Champion and 2x King of the Air winner, gaining insight into what it takes to perform at the top level.
- Lewis Crathern Day: Spend a full day of group coaching and a sunset dinner at the stunning Langebaan Lagoon with the UK’s 4x Champion and Big Air pioneer.
“Cape Town is such a special place for me,” says Lewis Crathern. “To be able to share that with riders in this kind of setup — small group, great conditions, the freedom to explore — that’s what kiteboarding’s all about.”
Epic Conditions, Exclusive Accommodation
Your home for the trip is a luxury beachfront villa overlooking the Atlantic at Sunset Beach — one of Cape Town’s most beautiful and reliable spots.
The villa includes five private, self-contained apartments, each with ocean views, terraces, and self-catering facilities. You can book solo, as a pair, or with your crew of up to four riders.
Between sessions, there’s time to unwind, explore, or simply kite from your doorstep. And with the Red Bull King of the Air window running at the same time, you’ll be there to witness the world’s most iconic Big Air event live.

This KiteBase Cape Town trip is designed for intermediate to advanced riders looking to push their skills, connect with like-minded kiters, and experience something truly unforgettable.
