Costa Calma Kitesurf Holidays

Southern Fuerteventura is one of the windiest locations in the Canary Island due to the geography of the land and mountains inland, creating the 'venturi' effect, like a bottle nose, accelerating the wind out over the beach. The wind here blows all year but is especially extremely strong on the summer months. There are really three main kitesurfing areas in Southern Fuerteventura, being Costa Calma (the main tourist area with many hotels and a superb kitesurf centre), Sotavento (home to one of the largest kitesurf schools in the world, but perhaps not the best service) and Risco Del Paso (a more isolated kitesurf spot but with far less gusty conditions that Sotavento). This really is an amazing Kitesurf location, with the kitesurf schools all at a very high standard stocking the latest range of equipment.It is best to call Planet Kitesurf Holidays if you are not sure which location is best for you, and we can walk you through the location. As always our advice is unbiased and honest based on over 20 years arranging windsurf holidays to Fuerteventura.
