Welcome

Open since Christmas 2006, the Shinn Centre, located in El Médano, Tenerife, offers a completely new concept in kitesurfing holidays. Whilst all kiters dream of year round, warm and windy kiting, the Shinn Centre offers something new and exciting to this time-honoured dream.

First and foremost the Shinn Centre is your test centre for all the latest, most up to date Nobile kiteboarding equipment. You wouldn't buy a car without a test drive so why buy your kite gear without being 100% sure it's right for you. All of the latest Nobile and Shinn boards are waiting for you in the centre, as well as, the NHP 666 and 555 ranges of Nobile kites, launched in January 2008. Give yourself the chance to experience what the magazines and Internet forums are raving about and decide for
yourself which gear might feature on your new wish list.

As much as we’d like to, we can’t guarantee the wind 365 days of the year! Fortunately Tenerife offers a host of other activities ranging from the relaxing to the energy fuelled! Surfing, paddleboarding, mountain biking, tours of Mount Teide and dolphin and whale watching are just a few of the activities available.

Over the next pages we'll introduce you in more detail to the centre, our staff and the facilities and activities on offer in El Médano and a little further afield. If you have any questions at all don't hesitate to contact us and ask.

We hope to see you soon!
