Tarifa is the Wind & Kitesurfers Mecca in Europe. There is a good reason why the who´s who of the Surfing Community get together here; wind all year long, waves, windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing, SUP. There are two main wind directions in blowing through the Strait of Gibraltar, Poniente and Levante. Poniente in Tarifa is a side onshore wind, which mainly doesn´t get too strong. An average Poniente day has 15-20 knots of very constant wind. Levante on the other hand often gets very strong. The Levante blows side offshore and often reaches 35-40 knots in strength. The shape of the bay our Center is located in, protects beginners from drifting away and ensures safe surfing even in high wind conditions.
