About this spot
Cabanas de Tavira – Kite Beach is a kitesurf and windsurf spot in Portugal. On the Ilha de Cabanas a 300 m stretch of beach was set aside for kitesurfers only, after the maritime authority had banned kiting for safety reasons. The Eolis school in Cabanas offers kite and windsurf lessons, also for children. Steady thermal wind.
The spot works best with wind from SW, W, S, SE (thermal); the windiest period is May–Oct. Depending on the wind you get flat water, chop or waves. It suits beginners and intermediates.
