Why Riders Love It

Often wind direction is East/Northeast, the best for this spot, 3 to 4 days a week at the best season. Other times we have Southwest wind with big swells, North offshore wind and raining South wind. Normally 10-15 knots, sometimes 15-25 knots, rare 25-35 knots. This beach works in every wind direction.

📅

When to Go

The air and water temperatures are most of the year pretty warm, during the winter is necessary to wear a wetsuit. The best season is September till December, but is possible to kite all year.
