Without a doubt, one of the best aquatic experiences I have ever had, the instructor Esteban gave me all the tools to enjoy it as if I had done it before, the warmth to teach was the best part, I felt very confident and safe. The music is a super plus!

For me there is no better plan than going up to Guatapé to wakeboard with Esteban. I recommend it 1000/10! I recently started practicing this sport and met Esteban, an excellent person and Wakeboard teacher. He has given me very clear instructions and tips that have helped me improve every time we see each other, and always having a great time!

The wakeboarding experience with Esteban is the best in Guatape without a doubt, he is always super dear, attentive, he picks you up at the hotel you need, he has patience for learning, he always has very good energy and good music to enjoy.

I’ve been wakeboarding with Esteban in Guatapé for three years now, and it’s hands down one of my favorite things about Colombia. The experience out on the water is unbeatable, whether you’re an experienced rider or just starting, Esteban makes you feel right at home. The scenery is stunning, and the vibe is always laid back and welcoming. There’s nothing quite like shredding with friends in this beautiful spot, and I’ll keep coming back as long as I can. If you’re looking for an unforgettable wakeboarding experience in Colombia, this is the place to be!

FAQs

Questions? We've got the answers—but in the end, it's up to you to be a Viking and GO 💪

Is water skiing hard to learn?

Not at all! Our instructors specialize in teaching beginners with simple and effective techniques.

Do I need to know how to water ski?

No prior experience needed. We’ll guide you every step of the way.

What water ski equipment is provided?

We provide the skis, the life jacket, the tow rope and an intercom helmet, plus the boat, the pilot and an instructor. You only need swimwear, a towel and sunscreen. Nothing has to be rented or brought separately.

How many people can ski per hour?

Typically 3–4 people can comfortably ski within one hour, depending on individual stamina.

Is there an instructor with us when water skiing?

Yes. Every water ski session includes a pilot and an instructor on board. The instructor adjusts boat speed to your level and coaches you through the deep-water start until you are comfortable behind the boat.

How much does water skiing cost in Guatapé?

Water ski sessions start at 400.000 COP per hour, covering the boat, the pilot, the skis, the life jacket and instruction. Typically three or four people can ski comfortably within one hour.

What is the minimum age for water skiing?

Six years old, though water skiing asks more of leg strength and balance than kneeboarding does. For younger or smaller riders we usually suggest starting on the kneeboard and moving to skis later.

What should I wear for water skiing?

Swimwear, a towel, dry clothes and sunscreen. Add a light jacket for the ride back, since the wind on the reservoir is cooler than it looks. Skis and life jacket are provided.

Can I learn slalom skiing with you?

Yes. Once you are stable on two skis the instructor moves you to dropping one and riding slalom. Progression depends on the rider, but the flat morning water on the reservoir makes it easier to hold an edge.

What are the water conditions like for skiing?

The Peñol-Guatapé reservoir is sheltered freshwater with no swell, so mornings are usually glassy. That is a significant advantage over skiing at sea, where chop makes learning much harder.
