Windsurfing and kitesurfing (also known as kiteboarding) are two great sports for extreme wind and water lovers. Unlike waterskiing or wakeboarding, you don't need any boat to pull you, and unlike surfing, you are not limited to the water. Rather, you have much more upward mobility. Keep in mind that while these sports are related, they do require different equipment that is specifically geared towards each one. One rule of thumb that goes for both of these sports is that the equipment is often quite costly and often training or professional instruction is recommended. But once you get the right know-how, your beach experience will reach a whole new level.
