Location
Yuckite's wing foil center is located directly on the beach and the accommodation is located just across the street in a quiet neighborhood in the town of Progreso. Since this is often a stop for cruise ships, there are plenty of great restaurants to visit and the local food is great.
The center of town is five kilometers away, but it is easy to get there by taxi or Uber. Your wing foiling experience will take place in Progreso, Yucatan, Mexico. Below are the wing foiling spots chosen by Yuckite.
El Playon
“El Playón” is the main spot for teaching and the most frequented wing foil spot in Progreso. With a wide beach that offers perfect conditions for safe and comfortable wing foiling lessons. The wind blows mainly side-onshore, between 15-25 knots almost every day throughout the year. From beginners to pro foilers, this spot is just perfect for foiling.
The lagoon
For learning wing foil, this spot is quite unique. There is barely no currents, the water is flat and shallow, with a wide open area to practice.
Chuburna
A multifarious spot! Chuburná is located in the west of Progreso, shortly after the village Chelem. A breakwater divides the beach into two: On one side is the wavy ocean, whereas on the other side you’ll find flat water.
