Lewis Crathern’s New Chapter With Harlem

Kiteboarding has seen many characters, but few have shaped the sport through as many roles as Lewis Crathern. From body dragging at Whitstable without a board to becoming a national champion, from soaring over Brighton Pier to becoming one of the most recognisable voices in global events, his journey has always been defined by passion and purpose. Now, with a fresh chapter at Harlem Kitesurfing, Lewis brings new energy to his riding, a deeper commitment to young people and a renewed focus on wind-powered education.

Overall a fantastic place with some priceless unspoilt kiting spots. With great people and food and cheap beer (they even come with a plate of chips as well if you’re lucky), you can't beat it.
