Matanzas is a beautiful place, a great spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing.
great waves, good winds. favourite spot for a lot of pros.

you are in the south pacific, so take your full wetsuit 4/3 recomended at least. to be more confortable use a 5/4mm and boots. all year.

this spot works better in the warm month´s (september to april).
