Vorhersage wird geladen…
Kitebeach in Santa Maria, on the island of Sal in Cape Verde, is the main spot for kitesurfing. It attracts riders of all levels thanks to its consistent cross-onshore wind and its 3 km long sandy beach.
Just a few minutes from the lively town of Santa Maria, this spot is ideal for learning or progressing safely. Kite schools like Mitu Monteiro's offer quality lessons and equipment.
The atmosphere is friendly with a beautiful white beach and small waves that make sessions fun without being too challenging.
The main wind comes from the east, cross-onshore or onshore relative to the east-facing beach, which always pushes riders towards the shore in case of trouble. This is perfect for beginners and intermediates as the wind is consistent and less turbulent compared to the southern or western spots on the island.
Launching is done directly from the sandy beach, wide and obstacle-free. The launch area is spacious thanks to the 3 km of beach, even in high season. You ride on a mix of flat near the shore and small waves further out, ideal for getting into wave kiting.
The schools organize shuttles from Santa Maria, just 5 minutes by car. In front of the ION Club center in Santa Maria, the wind is side-offshore and reserved for experts, but Kitebeach is the number one choice for all levels with its clear water and consistent conditions.
