Rocky Point / Fuerteventura kitesurf, wingfoil and surf spot

Overview

Rocky Point is a wave spot for experienced riders located just north of Flag Beach in the Corralejo area, Fuerteventura. It works mainly at high tide, when waves form with the wind and the north/northwest swell.

The spot produces short, punchy waves breaking over rocky reef. When NW swell combines with NE trade wind, Rocky Point offers excellent wave riding in a compact setting. It's not for beginners — the reef is shallow and the waves break fast.

Rocky Point is part of the chain of spots accessible from Corralejo, making it easy to combine with Flag Beach sessions depending on conditions.
