Tarifa

Tarifa has become known as 'the Wind Capital' for many different reasons. Its wind reliability probably tops them all. It is very difficult to have two consecutive non windy days.
But there is more to a spot than its wind strength. Direction is important too. Expert surfers will tell you how much easier it is to get out and come back with side sure winds. Beginners will appreciate how it will eventually push you back to the beach even if much caution and following simple safety rules is vital. The beach too has its importance. Sandy beaches make the experience mush more relaxing, and for those radicals who look for rock beds to lift those swells, well we have that too, even if not sadly to Hawaiian standards. Waves are best during the equinoxes and in Canos de Meca with strong levante. Tarifa is generally a flat water resort with Levante.

Wind Lords

Mainland
Platja d'Aro
Location: 35 km from Gerona, Costa Brava.
Facilities: The middle of the Paseo Marítimo is the most sociable spot. That's where the windsurfers come together to do there thing or to drink a "Café cortado con hielo". Friendly atmosphere. Shed with storage area and dressing room are rented out by Tony, at very reasonable rates, with the guarantee of advise and help by the former windsurfing world champion (Tony still participates in formula competitions in the category seniors)
In the evenings Platja d' Aro offers a wide range of relaxation possibilities, so the
non-surfer partner can also have some fun ...
