Rules |
Time, Other |
No lessons are allowed. Be careful with people and respect local advices. During high season kitesurfing is forbidden, but tolerated by the local police. So be kind to everyone on the beach. Never Seen people kite surf from the exact spot indicated on the map. You need to walk a little further North West. You'll be able to see all the local kite surfers easily enough to find the correct spot. Plenty of space for all beach users, even in the summer.
Nighlife in Oliva (20min by walk along the beach) or Denia.
