Winter

Amount of People Temperature Winds blowing Sea Acommodation




Few people usually gathered close by the Football field or in front of Arte y vida Hotel.

 

However, is it allowed to kite everywhere so if you move a bit from those two areas you will have plenty of space for yourself.


Cold. Both water and air have temperature around 13º.





Many Southern Ponientes, which come along with rain and rouge sea.
Also some colder and gustier Northern Ponientes. This wind is usually quite stronger than the southern one.
Levantes are not that frecuent.






During this season the sea is usually quite rough. With on-shore wind though is hard to surf any wave. On the other hand, whenever the wind is off-shore or side-off we can have a nive wave session.

 

If you are just starting up in Kiteboarding or if you like Freestyle check the hours of high tide, because then there usually is nice flat water lagoon. There you can improve your skill in a much more comfortable way. Just watch out if you see the tide is going back to low.

.

In Winter you will easily find a place to stay. Rates for hostals range from 20 to 25€ per night per person. If you are coming with a group of people we recommend you rent an apartment (people hire them per day)

August is quite crazy. You can have up to 1.000 kites on the air and the are 1hour traffic jam to get to the Kite Zone.

 

There is incredible night life and a great atmosphere, but if you do not like crowds you should avoid this month.





Up until the middle od July there are people, but still no traffic jams to get to the beach or whatsoever. In  September it is like that once again.


Water 17 º Air 25º



Levante is there 60% of the windy days



Thermal Ponientes take the other 40% of days with wind.








Flat sea with Levante wind



Choppy when Poniente is blowing






Make a reservation at least one or two moths in advanced or you will find yourself hustling to find a place to sleep.


Rates begin at 35 or 40€ per night and person.



 
 
Autumn

Amount of People Temperature Winds bolwing Sea Acommodation




October and holidays.

Water 16 º Air 19 º

more Ponientes than Levantes… Nevertheless, this is the part of the year with fewest days of wind per month. Anyhow the percentage of windy days reaches 50%.












Most commonly you will be facing Choppy or waves. This is the period of the year when the swell begins to reach the coast of Tarifa.


Rates lower down and there are many more rooms available once September is over.
