Kiting refers to recreational kite flying, ranging from small leisure kites to larger stunt-style designs. It is typically enjoyed in open outdoor spaces such as beaches, parks and wide coastal areas, where steady wind conditions allow for controlled flying.
ActivitySure can cover kiting when you are taking part abroad at an amateur level, provided the activity meets the policy conditions. While kiting is generally a low-risk leisure activity, changing wind conditions and uneven ground mean suitable travel insurance is still important when travelling.

Destination Insight
Where is popular to go kiting?
Kiting is popular in destinations with wide open spaces and reliable breezes, including coastal areas of Australia, Morocco and India. These locations offer long beaches and open landscapes that suit recreational kite flying.
Many travellers also take part during cultural events and festivals, such as large kite gatherings in Japan and the Gujarat region of India, where kite flying forms part of traditional celebrations.
Here's why kiting travel insurance matters:
Although kiting is not physically demanding, strong gusts or sudden changes in wind can lead to loss of control, trips or minor injuries. Even low-impact incidents may require medical attention while abroad.
Helpful travel tips
- Choose open areas away from roads, buildings and obstacles.
- Monitor wind strength carefully to avoid sudden pulls or loss of control.
- Maintain awareness of people nearby, particularly in busy public spaces.
- Always follow guidance provided by local organisers or event staff.Wear appropriate safety equipment where recommended for the conditions.
