Kite Zone School (KZS)

Kite Zone School (KZS) is a kitesurfing school on the shore of the Hourtin-Carcans lake (Lachanau), in Gironde. Its website highlights a real-time wind station for the lake, provided by KZS and based on a Weameter station, with wind history, a mobile version, forecasts and a webcam.

The website notes that kitesurfing and windsurfing on the lake depend on wind that is complex to anticipate, hence the value of live readings. It also links to the Black Bass Kite club and to the lake's regulations.
