Located on the northern coast of Menorca, Fornells is a quiet fishing village turned windsurfing hotspot, offering some of the best wind and water conditions in the Balearic Islands. The Clase de Windsurf (Nivel 2) course is designed specifically for windsurfers with at least 10 hours of prior experience, ready to push their skills beyond the basics and start truly mastering the waves. This course balances practical instruction with hands-on practice, aiming to transition riders towards the exhilarating feeling of planning—where the board lifts and skims over the water at speed.
The course runs primarily during the high season, offering 1.5-hour sessions that combine expert coaching with plenty of time on the sailboard. Low-season schedules involve an hour with an instructor followed by an independent hour to consolidate skills. Each session focuses on essential intermediate maneuvers such as controlling all directions of travel, rapid turns (virada rápida), tack maneuvers (trasluchada), optimizing your body position for stability and speed, harness technique, and handling advanced equipment. This progression is crucial for anyone aiming to ride stronger winds comfortably.
Participants receive full gear, including a high-quality sailboard, harness, safety vest, and access to changing rooms with showers, so you can focus on the water without hassle. Instruction is tailored to groups of up to eight during peak times, ensuring personalized feedback and safety. The instructors bring local expertise, leveraging Fornells’ consistent sea breeze and sheltered bay to create an ideal learning environment.
Fornells itself stands out as a windsurfing destination for its reliable Tramontana wind and beautiful coastal terrain, framed by limestone cliffs and traditional fishing boats bobbing in the harbor. Beyond windsurfing, visitors can sample fresh seafood in the village’s restaurants or explore nearby natural reserves and beaches that feel untouched. The area’s blend of laid-back charm and robust wind conditions makes it one of Spain’s unique spots for water sports.
For those looking to advance their windsurfing journey, the Clase de Windsurf Nivel 2 course is the perfect next step—transforming the tentative beginner’s skills into confident carving and fast maneuvers. Whether you’re staying local or passing through Menorca, this course offers a practical, immersive approach to improving your technique in some of Europe’s best waters.
