Description

Wind direction is side-onshore. This, combined with an aprox. 5Km sandy beach makes it a very safe place for learning the sport.

The wind generally starts around noon time and increases during the first hours of the afternoon.  The wind at this spot is very consistent, no gusts, and most days lasts until 5:30pm.

During the months of November to January we have our wave season.

Waves that reach 3-4 meters, still with  average winds of 18-25 knots makes a great place for Kite- Surfing
