Spain · Canarias
Overview
- No kitesurfing
⚠️ SPOT BANNED — Water sports (kitesurfing, wingfoiling, windsurfing, etc.) are prohibited at Los Pocillos.
Los Pocillos is a tourist beach in Puerto del Carmen, south of Matagorda, on the east coast of Lanzarote. Although wind conditions (NE trade winds) can occasionally be favourable, all traction and sail-powered water sports are officially banned by local authorities.
Kitesurfers and wingfoilers should head to other spots on the island such as Famara (northwest coast), Costa Teguise or Las Cucharas, where practice is allowed and conditions are much more suitable.
