  • Find and surf the famous peruvian waves. Do some downwind excursions in the desert, discover unique and fascinating landscapes, watch the local wildlife - seals, pelicans, whales, dolphins...
    Improve your waveriding style     thanks to wonderful virgin or worldclass reefbreaks.

  • DOWNWIND CONCEPT IS NOT A TRAVEL AGENCY!

    It is the dream and work of two mediterrannean guys, passionate about outdoors sports who met on the Peruvian northshore. From their shared attachment to South America and open spaces came out the idea of offering kitesurf trips around the countinent and the world.

    “ Our goal is to organise unique trips. Kitesurfing in some of the most magic places on earth blessed with exceptional weather conditions and hidden in heart-gripping landscapes. ”
