- Down in the southwest of the island, this great little bay provides a variety of water conditions that will suit everybody. Whether you want to surf, windsurf or kitesurf, and whatever your experience or abilities, this will have something for you.
- This is another wave spot on the same stretch of coast as Shacks, and just a bit further over from Isabela. Once again, it is mainly populated by surfers, with the occasional kiter and windsurfer, and as the conditions are quite challenging it is only suitable for those with plenty of experience.
- This is solely a place for the experts, requiring the ability to handle large waves and the odd angry local. Surfers are most common here, but there’s no reason why kiters and windsurfers couldn’t use it too.
- Right in front of the hotel, this is a fairly popular spot on the east coast of the island. While actual conditions here aren’t too challenging, the small area available and the busy nature means it isn’t suitable for beginners, whether kitesurfers or windsurfers.
- One for experienced surfers, kiters and windsurfers, this another spot close to San Juan that also offers some interesting conditions. Waves are present part of the year, so time your visit carefully if you have a preference.
- Right next to San Juan, this is a popular spot for visitors of all interests and abilities, though those who like waves will probably get most out of it.
- Sitting on an exposed part of the north coast, this spot is perfectly placed to catch both winds and swells. Because of this it is known as a wave riders paradise, and while it’s obviously good for surfing it is also used by intermediate and above windsurfers and kitesurfers.
- Surrounded by reefs, this coastal spot is effectively in a lagoon and as a result it is protected from the worst of the ocean currents. This makes it a safe, predictable spot that will appeal to windsurfers and kitesurfers of all abilities but is especially suited to beginners.
- Up in the northwest of the island, this spot is exposed to the wind and the swell from the ocean and produces some great waves. Surfers, kitesurfers and windsurfers all come out here, but as the conditions are a bit more challenging than usual an intermediate or better rating is required.
- This is a nice spot, convenient for the main populated areas but still in its own little bay. It is useful for either kitesurfing or windsurfing, and anyone will be ok here regardless of their experience level.
- Just a couple of hours drive from San Juan, this is a tough beach break that demands respect. For those surfers, kitesurfers and windsurfers who like large waves it’s a great place, but you have to have the experience to handle it.
- Right up on the north coast and looking fairly exposed, this spot is much more consistent than you might expect. It is in fact quite tame, and suits all experience levels of kitesurfer and windsurfer.
- Right down in the southeast corner of the country, this relatively remote spot is surprisingly well developed. Both kitesurfers and windsurfers use it, and all abilities will find it a good place to spend a day.
- A lot bit more challenging than the nearby La Punta spot, this lagoon requires a good grasp of the basics and a fair bit of practical experience. It’s a great location and has plenty going for it though, and watching the lagoon fill and empty with the tide is a sight in itself.
- This kitesurfing and windsurfing spot is suitable for all abilities. It is found at the end of a long spit of land and while it is exposed to the winds, it is protected from swells from the surrounding bay.
- This out of the way spot is in the south west portion of the country, and sits in the middle of an exposed bay. The full power of the sea is able to roll in here, creating a big wave spot that will appeal to experienced surfers, windsurfers and kitesurfers.
- This exposed ocean spot demands a certain amount of ability, and because of this it isn’t suitable for beginners. Anyone who likes large waves will enjoy it out here, whether they are surfers, kitesurfers or windsurfers.
