Playa de Camposoto
Espagne · Andalusia
The Camposoto beach, in San Fernando, Andalusia, is a large, very open sandy beach, appreciated by local riders for its easy access and beautiful riding area. It is a spot known for its sessions that are easy to read when the wind is well oriented.
People come here mainly for the space, the length of the sandbank, and the often clean conditions depending on the tide. The atmosphere remains very local, with a well-established kite practice on the beach.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
Camposoto mainly works with wind from the W to NW sector, with good sessions also when the wind has a bit of a SW component according to local sources. The beach is very exposed and wide, allowing space to rig and take off, but it is important to respect the navigation area and the water sports zone when they are in place during the season.
The water surface is generally composed of chop with sometimes small waves, especially when the wind pushes a bit across the water. At low tide, some sources report that rocks may appear in some areas, so launching requires more attention in the lower beach. At high tide, navigation is more comfortable, and the usable space at the water's edge is often better for clean take-offs.
The beach is quite suitable for simple navigation when the wind is side-shore to side-on depending on the day's direction, with a cleaner feel in the central part and well-cleared areas. However, with wind too offshore or misaligned, the session becomes less comfortable, especially if you move away from the monitored area or the part allowed for kites. Launching takes place on the sand, with a wide take-off area, but it is important to stay attentive to other users and reserved sectors.
