Kite Season
Spain, renowned for its vibrant culture, diverse landscapes, and sun-soaked beaches, emerges as a captivating destination for kitesurfing enthusiasts. With a coastline that spans the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, Spain offers kiteboarders a tapestry of kite spots, each with its own unique charm.
The kitesurfing season in Spain varies depending on the region, but generally, the prime time spans from late spring to early autumn (May – September). During these months, the combination of thermal winds and sea breezes creates optimal conditions for kitesurfing. Wind speeds typically range from 12 to 25 knots, offering a range suitable for riders of all levels.
Tarifa, known as the “Kitesurfing Capital of Europe,” located in the southernmost tip of Spain, is a mecca for kiteboarders. The region experiences strong and consistent winds known as the Levante and Poniente. Playa de Los Lances and Playa Valdevaqueros are iconic spots where riders can showcase their skills against the backdrop of Africa across the Strait of Gibraltar.
One of the Canary Islands, Fuerteventura is a paradise for kitesurfers with its warm temperatures and steady winds. Sotavento Beach and Flag Beach are popular spots, attracting riders from around the world. The island’s diverse conditions cater to both freestyle enthusiasts and wave riders. Kite season here is year-round, with Summer having the strongest wind.
The largest of the Balearic Islands, Mallorca is a gem for kitesurfers seeking a Mediterranean experience. Spots like Pollensa Bay and Alcudia Bay offer reliable winds and stunning scenery, creating an idyllic setting for kiteboarding. Expect mostly lighter wind.
In the northeastern part of Spain, riders from Barcelona tend to head towards San Pere Pescador or Castelldefels since kitesurfing is not allowed in Barcelona beaches during Summer.
Other popular hubs are also Delta d’Ebro, La Loteta (central regions), Cartagena and many more!
