It's very easy, the spot is just in front of the airport, you can go by car.
Rules |
Time |
You can't kitesurf during summer in the principal beaches. More in front of the bridge you must go something like 1 km to the left during July and August. It's not easy to park the car but possible. In case of any doubts ask to the locals they are good boys and will help you.
