Locatie
Just a quick hop north from the lively city of Porto, less than an hour’s drive from the international airport, you’ll stumble upon a kitesurfing paradise known as “Viana Do Castelo”.
The go-to spot is “Praia do Cabedelo, “ where you will have your lessons. This place is a total gem, with its vast sandy beach and epic riding conditions.
There’s a flatwater area with high tide loads of shallow water, making it a great place to learn. This is perfect for beginners and also ideal for advanced riders looking to nail some freestyle tricks and catch some massive air.
Also, for those who crave wave action, you’re in luck. Downwind from the flatwater area, there’s a cool, fun spot with small to medium waves.
Nortada wind, which dominates the Portuguese Atlantic coastline, delivers awesome wind conditions for six whole months (April to October). Thanks to the natural surroundings that create a localized thermic effect, this reliable wind gains strength, making Viana do Castelo the windiest spot in all of Portugal!
