The Balneario spot is one of the most famous big air spots in the world!
During Levante (Off-Shore), it offers a spectacular show to spectators who settle on the breakwater to see up close the pro kitesurfers training to perform their best tricks.
No real interest during Poniente (On-Shore)
Warning:
During Levante, this spot is reserved for professional level kitesurfers due to its complexity. (Full Off-shore wind and no safety)
Balneario parking right next to the spot, very convenient, but often crowded especially in summer. (July August)
Hazards
The Balneario spot is extremely small (approx. 200m) between the Tarifa breakwater and a rock formation in the water on the north side.
- Beyond the rock formation, there is wind shadow caused by the relief of Tarifa city.
- During Levante, the spot is Off-Shore and no safety services are present.
Wind specificities
During Levante (East) - Side-Off to Full-Off orientation
During Poniente (West) - Side-On orientation
