Overview

Balneario La Florida is a kitesurfing spot located on the Parana River, in Rosario, Santa Fe Province. This spot is one of the two main sailing points in Rosario, used especially when the southeast wind blows in the late afternoon. The spot is challenging with little space for kite launching, strong current, muddy bottom, and large vessel traffic. Prevailing winds blow from the southeast and southwest. Reserved for experienced riders due to the dangers of river traffic and current.
