Karibu — Welcome

Born on this beach.
Built for every rider.

I am Madli Amini and I have been kitesurfing in Watamu, Lamu and Shela since I was a teenager. After years as a safari guide and kitesurfing instructor, I followed my dream and opened my own school on Shela Beach.

My school is not just a place to learn a sport — it's an invitation to become part of a community that shares the same passion for kitesurfing and the unique charm of this island.
