Welcome at Floripa Yoga & Kitesurf House!
In this page, we’d like to tell you more about us so that while at Floripa,you’ll fell at home and be at ease to ask us for information, and to tell us your needs and requests. We are a small team of people who work hard but at the same time really enjoy the company of our guests, love spending time at the beach (we basically all kitesurf!), and to practice yoga.


Nice meeting you!
Floripa Surf House opened in 2007, when Ettore, a former waterpolo player, decided to finally leave Bergamo (his city of origin) in the north of Italy, to live in a warmer place close to the sea. First, Ettore bought the red house (the “Surf House”), and in 2012 he bought the turquoise house (the “Kite House”).
In 2013 Ettore and Ameriga met at the beach in Santa Maria del Focallo. She is originally from Catania but has lived abroad for 14 years, between Japan, Africa, Burma, Chile, Panama and Costa Rica. She decided to come back to Sicily because after all it is still her favourite place in the world.
That day Ettore was teaching a kitesurfing lesson, and Ameriga was kitesurfing with some friends. With Ameriga on board Floripa started to offer yoga holidays and vegetarian dinners.
As Floripa expanded we needed the help of some amazing people, and so, our family was born!
