For a summer kitesurfing spot in Europe, Lake Como is hard to beat. Surrounded by the towering peaks of the southern Alps, Lake Como is just 90 minutes from Milan, 3hrs from Zurich, and 4hrs from Geneva. The 162 square kilometre fresh-water lake provides unbeatable learning conditions, and also a perfect playground for more advanced kiters. Unlike the better-known lake Garda, Como is rarely too busy and in summer months over 90% of days bring kiteable wind.
414 Kiting is open between May & September when the kiteable thermal winds blow most reliably, but you can contact us at any time if you have questions or would like to book lessons.
If you’re an advanced kiter just looking for information on the Lake Como winds or the best spots to launch from the land, then you might also want to check out our Como Kitespot Guide!
