Nova Guest Reviews

Thank you Team Nova!

We had just the most amazing time with you. Turtles, beaches, singrays, lobster - wow!
Your hospitality was just awesome and a trip never to forget!
Sail Fast
Live Slow

Every Day Good Vibes!

We all wish to have new experiences in life. Those are the ones that enrich our lifes and empower our growth. Like any other addicted kiter we always seek for new challenges, either new destinations or different ways of living kitesurf.

And what an experience i had last year on catamaran Nova. Wohoo feeling so greatfull! Imagine the perfect receipt: sun and warm weather, amazing island landscapes and new kite spots everyday, get together kite, share life experiences with those who have the same interests, have nice and healthy food, and end the day relaxing at catamaran watching the stars/lights from the near islands, or watching a movie or day drone shootings filmages.

But what really makes the catamaran special were the hosts. Their passion by life and kite its contagious and brings you everyday good vibes and the assurance they will pursue the best spots, cause they are doing this not just for you, but for themselfes as well :;)).
My experience was amazing and for those who now only dream about new kite adventures, i strong recommend to take action, and experiment a unique holidays, by joining Mariana and Rolf.

Good Crew, Fantastic Food

Review from Cyclades

The crew is very friendly and fun, they made us feel very comfortable and special! We visited the most beautiful bays like from postcards! The crew showed us the most famous and visited places on the Cyclades islands! The catamaran is well equipped and the food was very delicious for which we thank the beautiful host! The crew is very hospitable and always thinks of something for fun for the whole group. I hope I can come back this summer again for this amazing adventure! Krasi
