Centro Náutico Zoak

The Zoak Nautical Center emerged a little over a year ago with the aim of creating a water sports school where everyone could enjoy and have fun while learning. They are located in Guardamar del Seguro (Alicante) less than 40 kilometers from the city of Levante.

The school is open all year round and the courses are for all levels. There are them for groups, but also individuals. All are taught by qualified instructors and graduates by the Valencian Sailing Federation. Their philosophy is that everyone can learn and have fun in any of the sports they offer so that later, they can practice them on their own.

Thus, with Zoak you can learn the following sports:

- Kitesurfing: Paragliding, surfing and windsurfing come together in this sport that is becoming increasingly popular on the beaches of Spain. The learning curve is not high at all, but it is important to have good teachers because being an activity that depends on the wind it is essential to know the rules and safety techniques.

- Paddle Surf: This sport is very relaxed, but also very complete from the point of view of physical fitness. Rowing on the board will develop your balance, exercise your legs, arms, strengthen your back, increase your physical resistance, etc. Zoak courses will teach you to handle both in calm waters and in sea with some waves.

- Surf: Everyone can catch waves on the board if they know the proper techniques. Zoak courses will allow you to get started in this sport and continue progressing until you reach a sufficient level to function on your own.

Do you want to learn kitesurfing with the best professionals? In Centro Naútico Zoak Kitesurf you can do it. The center is located in the town of Guardamar del Segura, in the province of Alicante, just half an hour by car from the city of Alicante.

Kitesurfing is not a very difficult sport to practice, and it is surely easier than other similar ones such as surfing. However, it is important to learn the techniques of handling the kite and the board well. When operating on the force of the wind you have to know what to do in unforeseen situations and know some important safety rules. That is why it is very important to learn with good teachers.

The kitesurf nautical center was created a year ago with the aim that everyone can kitesurf and that learning is dynamic and fun. All the teachers are certified instructors who, in addition to having a lot of experience, have a real passion for this sport.

There are courses for all levels , from people who have never seen a sail and a board before to people who already consider themselves experienced kiters and simply want to perfect some specific aspects or techniques.

Another of the great attractions of the Zoak Nautical Center is its post-course service. At Zoak they fully understand that at the end of the course you may still have doubts and, above all, that the relationship between teacher and student is maintained even though the course is over. That is why they are committed to helping you and assisting you with any doubts you may have in the days after the course.

You can also rent material to practice kitesurfing on your own.

Windsurfing was born in the 60s as a combination of surfing and sailing. In this way, the techniques required to be able to navigate are also a mixture of both sports. In the Zoak Windsurf Nautical Center you can learn them with qualified professionals (by the Valencian Sailing Federation) and experts. The center is located in the Alicante town of Guardamar del Segura, about 35 kilometers south of the city of Alicante.

In Zoak courses you will be able to learn and progress gradually. There are courses of all levels so if you don't have any previous experience, don't worry, because you won't need it either. Some of the contents taught are: parts of the equipment, assembly of the sail and the board, entering the water, how to balance on the board, lifting the sail, how to position the body correctly, self-rescue, direction control , tacking, etc.

All the material is included in all the courses so that windsurfers do not have to worry about anything other than taking advantage of the course and learning everything they can.

Surely you have seen people on the beach paddling standing on a surfboard. This sport is known as paddle surfing and has its origin in the way of moving of the ancient Polynesians. Now you can learn it thanks to the Zoak Paddle Surf Nautical Center, which is located in Guardamar del Segura (Alicante province) approximately half an hour by car from the city of Alicante.

Paddle surfing is a very fun sport and, in addition, very complete. Balance, leg strength, arms, endurance and physical background are worked on, etc. On the other hand, it has a learning curve that is not too high so that everyone can practice it. Depending on the day you do, the sensations of paddle surfing (also known as Stand Up Paddle or SUP) vary a lot. On days when the sea is calm, it is almost like walking on the waves. On days when there are waves, it is very fun to do a trip downwind, where you will see that you progress much faster and with less effort.

The courses available are of various levels, from beginners to advanced. You can also rent the equipment to do the sport on your own. Go ahead and do something new and try Paddle Surf with Zoak.
