Overview

Edit

Usually wavy and a great spot to learn how to ride waves. Sandy beach next to Santa Maria, Sal island.

Wind

Usually side-offshore, very steady 12-20 knts. Wind pretty much never goes over 25 knts. Might get a bit gusty close to the shore, but outside is very clean.

It is your responsability to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
