Windsurfing:
You'll be provided with a board, buoyancy aid and wetsuit, taught on dry land about the gear and how to use it, and then taken onto the water. A couple of days should see you with the basics mastered. Most instruction is in small groups but one-to-one tuition may be available at extra cost.
