Selected wing foil centers just for you

Wingfoil is attracting an ever-growing number of enthusiasts in search of new gliding and outdoor sensations. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, choosing the right center is essential if you want to progress, rent or store your own equipment in complete safety and have a great time. That’s why we’ve selected some of the best wingfoil centers in the world, offering top-quality supervision.

Why choose a wingfoil center?

Wingfoil, which is still new compared to kitesurfing or windsurfing, requires specific training. Turning to a certified center offers many advantages:

Professional supervision: experienced instructors will guide you every step of the way, whether you’re a beginner or looking to perfect your skills.
Top-of-the-range equipment: most centers offer state-of-the-art equipment, perfectly adapted to your level and the conditions of the spot.
Maximum sailing conditions: Our centers are located in spots with suitable water conditions, often with steady winds and safe zones.
Rapid progress: Thanks to personalized advice, you’ll improve your technique faster than if you were to learn on your own.

Many wingfoil clubs also offer equipment rental. This is an excellent opportunity to discover and test different equipment without having to invest immediately. You can try out a different brand, opt for a larger foil for greater stability or a smaller one for greater maneuverability. This flexibility allows you to adapt your equipment to the conditions of the day, but also to refine your preferences before considering a new purchase. Testing before you buy can often avoid unpleasant surprises and help you make the choice best suited to your riding style and level.

For those who travel with their own foil quiver, many centers offer a storage service specially designed to ensure the safety of your equipment. By entrusting the storage of your own equipment to a specialized center, you benefit not only from a suitable space, but also from the supervision of on-site instructors and staff. You no longer have to worry about putting your equipment away each time you go out. It’s a practical, reassuring solution for cruising with peace of mind!

All you have to do is dive into our selection of the most beautiful destinations and iconic spots, specially chosen by AFS. Each site has been chosen with passion, to offer you the very best in wingfoil. Get inspired, plan your next session and enjoy the thrill of wingfoil wherever the wind and waves take you!
