Foiling Travel Insurance2025-11-05T02:42:30+00:00

Glide Above the Waves with Confidence

Foilboarding has transformed surf travel — letting riders glide effortlessly above the water using the lift of a hydrofoil. Whether you’re surf, wing, SUP, or downwind foiling, this sport blends speed, balance, and precision in some of the world’s most beautiful coastal environments.

Foiling Travel Insurance protects you from takeoff to touchdown, covering medical emergencies, equipment damage, and trip disruptions so you can focus on performance — not the paperwork.

Why You Need Foiling Travel Insurance

Foiling combines surf, wind, and endurance elements, often taking riders offshore or into remote reef zones where assistance may be limited.
Because foilboards and wings are high-value and easily damaged, they require both transit protection and medical coverage tailored to adventure sports.
A specialized plan ensures coverage for injuries, evacuation, or lost equipment wherever your foil journey leads.

Surf trips often involve unpredictable weather, multiple flights, and remote destinations.

  • Emergency medical and evacuation coverage for foil-related injuries or offshore incidents.

  • Trip cancellation and delay protection for weather, flight, or event disruptions.

  • Gear and equipment protection for foilboards, masts, wings, and electric components.

  • Baggage and delay benefits for lost, delayed, or damaged luggage.

  • 24/7 global assistance with multilingual medical, rescue, and claims support.

  • Coverage for training and competition under eligible sports or adventure plans.

  • CFAR (Cancel For Any Reason) provides flexibility to cancel trip before departure.
