Is there anything quite like the feeling of cresting a hill and catching a glimpse of kites in the air as you approach a kite spot for the first time? That first thought… “It’s windy!!!” and the building excitement as you get closer and closer to the kite beach? This is a kite spot most of us have heard of and one many of us dream of one day riding… it’s the kiteboarding mecha of Europe: Tarifa, Spain.
For those of us who have only experienced kite spots in North America or the Caribbean, this is a completely new world. Tarifa has a rich and colourful history that will enchant both kiteboarders and non-kiteboarders. This city got its name nearly a thousand years before America was even settled… and it’s been a wild ride ever since! In modern day, it’s ripping winds make this spot a wind lovers dream.

Hi there, I will be travelling with my defender and roof tent to Tarifa next week and would love to know the best campsite on the beach to stay. Im an intermediate kiter so no issues with wind directions, but would love to camp as close to the beach as possible to wake up and hit the water. any tips welcome. thanks

I have been going to Tarifa for about 20 yrs. It takes nearly 2 days driving from the UK but is well worth the trip. A couple of things you missed on your guide. One of the nearest airports is Gibraltar and you didn't mention the campsites, several of which are right on the beach. A good budget option .

Тарифа - отличный спот, где всегда дует ветер. Езжу сюда с 2004 года. Красивый старинный городок с уникальной атмосферой. Лучший пляж для катухи - пляж Вальдевальхерос, лучший отель - pansion Correos, лучший кемпинг - Torre da la Pena, лучший ресторанчик - где мясо на открытом огне жарят прямо у барной стойки (старая часть городка, метров двести от памятника), лучшее время для катухи -весна, осень. Зима тоже неплохо, летом негде остановиться и слишком дорого. Есть еще классные места для океанского катания от Тарифы в стороны Кадиса примерно в 60 км.

I really like these series. Keep it up! Some feedback, please don't blur the screen and point to the link on the top right corner. It doesn't point to anything on the phone or on TV and blurry screen makes the experience uncomfortable. I've also noticed that in some videos the data visualizations do not really fit the narrative well. Moreover, in some cases additional dollar signs seem to represent cheaper which is confusing. Looking forward to the next episode. Cheers!

Ertan Dogrultan thanks for the feedback my friend. The green arrow points to a KZfaq Card. That will only be available on the KZfaq ap with mobile or a standard desktop. We can't fit all the information in the videos without making them obnoxiously long so we link to our full guide. Thanks for the insight on the Data, I'll have to work on improving these to more clearly display the information. Cheers! - Rygo

Holy sh#t thats crowded! Have you been there in september? Is it less crowded then?

@MACkiteboarding 6 жыл бұрын

Hey Simon! Truth be told, September is one of their "slower" times - I've been there in September and still been amazed by the amount of kites in the sky. It's just a very busy place in general!

@AlikiTravelBlog 3 жыл бұрын

I was now in April and wasn't crowded at all. but...it's covid...so that might influence

If you go to Tarifa, rent a camper and sleep at your favorite beach or in town whereever you want, there are hundreds if not thousands of people from all over the world who do this. Trust me, if you dont mind showering at one of the beachbars if your camper has no shower, you will have the best time.
