Born on
Shela Beach

Madli Amini · Founder & Head Instructor

A life spent
on the water

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

I am happy to call Lamu my home, with its pristine landscapes, crystal-clear waters, and the consistent trade winds that make this one of the finest kitesurf destinations in the world.

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.
