Overview

Amazing spot for beginners! At low tide, small islands form with waist-deep water. The west wind (Poniente) generally blows between 15 and 25 knots and is super consistent. For any advice or lessons, the Isla Canela Kite Paradise school is really great, all with typical Andalusian hospitality!
