Most Reliable Kitesurfing Months
Although Alcaidesa boasts good wind conditions through most of the year, the coastal winds are at their best from June to October, providing five months of potential Kitesurfing conditions. During these months, the ‘Levante’ (eastward) winds, predominant in this region, offer the ideal onshore gusts needed for an extraordinary kitesurfing experience. Close to Alcaidesa, there are also some great spots when Levante blows, and you want to still have good onshore winds.
Water Temperatures
Water temperatures throughout the year are favorable, peaking at a balmy 23-25°C (73-77°F) from June to September, and typically remain around 16-17°C (60-63°F) during winter (December-March). This temperature range allows for comfortable kitesurfing conditions year-round, although a wetsuit is recommended in the chillier winter months.
Kitesurfing Mecca Tarifa
Beyond Alcaidesa, kitesurfing enthusiasts should add the nearby town of Tarifa to their list. This world-renowned kitesurfing mecca – only 40 kilometers from Alcaidesa, consistently attracts global kitesurfers for its reliable winds and captivating bohemian vibe (find more details here).
