The crews who keep coming back
A beach house on the world's most consistent kite strip collects a certain kind of regular. These are ours — two crews who return every Cape Town season, and who we're proud to call partners. If you want to experience this coastline the way the pros do, book a trip with them and you may well end up staying here.
SkyHigh — Sardinia's watersports home
SkyHigh is the watersports centre at Porto Botte, Sardinia, founded in 2010 by Marta Hlavaty-Orłowska — three-time Formula Windsurfing World Champion — and Karol "Orzeł" Orłowski. Their base is 400 metres from one of the Mediterranean's best flat-water spots, and their kitesurfing, windsurfing, wing-foiling and surf camps have built a community that treats the place like a surfer's second home.
Every Cape Town season, the SkyHigh crew trade the Mediterranean for the Cape Doctor — and Drift is where they land. Year after year.
Join them: SkyHigh runs camps and trips throughout the year — from Sardinian summer camps to international missions. Find their next experience at skyhigh.pl.
Fruitloops — South Africa's kite & foil family
Fruitloops is the Durban-based kitesurfing and wing-foiling hub co-founded by Lorenzo Valenti and Joshua Emanuel — Red Bull Megaloop Challenge winner and one of South Africa's big-air greats. They run top-tier coaching, stock premium gear from brands like Core and Mystic, and lead legendary kite safaris — including missions up the coast to Mozambique.
Josh and the Fruitloops crew are familiar faces at Drift, having shot content at the villa between sessions on the strip. When the megaloop guys sign off on your kite house, the logistics are right.
