Level: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert

Type: Lagoon

Water type: Shallow, Flat

Water hazards: None

Water quality: Clean

Infos: Only possible before and after high tide. Water max. 1m deep, too flat at low tide. Very flat water, very small chop.

Beach type & size: Sand - Small

Infos: There are several access points. Lots of space from west, south and east. The beach where the most access the lagoon, since it is the closest point by car, is very small. But launch in the water no problem. All sandy beach.

Identified hazards: None

Beachgoer: None

Weather specificities: Nice air temperatures all year-round, around 25C. Water rather cold, wetsuit needed all year-round.

Wind type: Trade

Wind specificities: Usually very gusty and sideoffshore almost every day from spring to fall. Winds can be gusting anything between 3-8 Bft. Sometimes stronger. Winter can have South or East winds, more constant, but less strong and not that often.

Best months: May, June, July, August, September

Access description: by Car - Fly into Puerto del Rosario, Fuerteventura. Then by car or bus to the South on the highway. Turn left when you see the sign to `Sol Gorriones`. Pass the hotel to the right and drive uphill. A dirt road with rocks goes almost all the way to the south, drive slow and carefully. The launch is where a bigger area is accessable by car, normally you see the kites immediately. You can also walk from the hotel Sol Gorriones down to the lagoon, or from the windsurf spot to the west walk east to the lagoon.

Specific rules: None

Extra: Works only for about 4 hrs a day. Be careful with jumping, the water can be very flat!

Accommodations: Rooms, School, Parking
