What is Wing Foil and Why It’s Worth Trying
Wing foil is a water sport that combines elements from windsurfing, kiteboarding, and surfing, but with the freedom and ease of control that makes it increasingly popular. It involves a handheld wing that captures the wind, allowing you to glide across the water while standing on a board.
This activity appeals to a wide range of travelers because it’s easy to pick up with guidance, yet offers scope for skill development as you progress. The 90-minute lesson strikes a good balance — enough time to learn the basics and get comfortable, without feeling overwhelmed or exhausted.
The Location: Ca’n Pastilla Beach
Situated on the southern coast of Mallorca, Ca’n Pastilla beach is known for its calm waters and steady breeze, ideal for beginners and intermediate riders. The designated area for the lesson ensures safety and minimizes the risk of encountering large waves or crowded boats, which are common worries at more popular beaches.
During the lesson, you’ll start close to the shore to familiarize yourself with the wing and board, then gradually take on more adventurous maneuvers. The beach’s soft sand and clear waters make it easy to get back on your board if you fall — which you will, but that’s part of the fun.
