Barra de Valizas is a kitesurfing spot in the Rocha department, on Uruguay's Atlantic coast. This bohemian coastal village sits between La Pedrera and Cabo Polonio, offering wild and windy beaches.

Prevailing winds come from the south and southeast, with speeds of 15-25 knots. The season runs from October to April. The Valizas creek mouth offers a flat water area, while the ocean has waves.

The spot suits intermediate riders. The vibe is laid-back and bohemian, with a community of surfers and kitesurfers.
