The perfect spot for 20 years.
Pro Center I is located directly in the Sotavento wind funnel. Strong
winds and water conditions from flat up to six foot waves make this
the perfect spot for freestylers, racers and kiters. Mother nature
has provided a beautiful white sand beach with crystal-clear turquoise
water for miles around the center. We provide a reserved sunbed
for you in the palm garden, right in front of the station, protected
from the wind. At Pro Center I there is also a beach bar in the
palm garden. The new kite center is located at Pro Center I. The
popular Hotel Sol Gorriones is just 200 yards from the center. Strong
and constant wind, with water conditions from flat to wavey are
the features of this top spot.
Pro Center II is 2 miles south of Pro Center René Egli I.
It is ideally situated near the large sand dunes and is still within
the Sotavento wind funnel. The spot is equally suitable for beginners
and advanced windsurfers. In the large, shallow lagoon beginners
and experienced surfers can improve in super-flat water conditions,
while wave heads can jump and ride in the three to six foot breakers
on the sand bars in front of the lagoon. The station is located
directly at the water's edge and has a 700 m² beach station,
complete with a Spanish-run restaurant.
The kite center has established Sotavento's reputation as an excellent
kite spot. We hosted the Kite-World-Cup in 2001 and 2002. Sebastien
Catelan set a new hang time world record with his first attempt,
an 8.87 second long jump.
All levels of kiters have a great time here, not just the pros.
The waist deep lagoon is absolutely perfect for learning to kiteboard,
and the main beach is huge giving more than enough space for a lot
of kites at the same time. For school and rental equipment we have
the top brand Cabrinha. There are 160 2003 kites and 50 2003 kiteboards,
all ready and waiting for you!
