About H2O Extreme

H2o Extreme is Kenya’s first and most comprehensive water sports center offering kitesurfing, windsurfing, SUP, surfing, kayaking, body boarding and skim boarding. Further on it is the only IKO affiliated kite school in Kenya with over 15 years of experience. The school was founded back in 2003 by Boris Polo, who was born and raised in Kenya. Boris started off with a small surf shack based at the original The Sands at Nomad and later on also at 40 Thieves Beach Bar. Due to the dependency on the tides and the amount of boats on central Diani Beach, he soon decided to move to Kenyaways Kite Village on Galu Beach, which offers the better and safer water and beach conditions for all water sports. Boris not only helped to boost kitesurf and windsurf related tourism in Kenya, but he also explored Kenya’s remote places by kite. He was part of an expedition to cross the Chalbi Desert on land boards and was the first person to ever kitesurf on Lake Turkana, which is the largest permanent desert lake with the highest population of Nile crocodiles. If you are also interested in discovering the diversity of Kenya, you are welcome to join us on one of downwinders, day trips to the flat water paradise Funzi or go on an individually tailored “surfari” to combine the best of Kenya’s beaches with an unforgettable wildlife experience.
