Spot info

The beach in Oliva is perfect, large and long, there are no currents and on 2pm the wind starts to blow. Wind only starts when there is sunshine, when it is cloudy the thermik wind can't get on.

On the weekend there are quite a lot of people and not many of them know the rulz, so you have to take care a bit more!

In July and August there is only limited kitesurfing possible, police will give you a fine or take your kite. :(
