Matas Blancas Kitesurf Spot in Fuerteventura
Europe Kiteboard Spot in Spain
Matas Blancas is one of the top kite spot in Fuerteventura because of the flat water in the bay and the pumping cross offshore wind. Advanced kitesurfers will love the flat water which is ideal for freestyle and wakestyle riding, while beginners will need to take lessons with a boat or jetski on hand. The beach boasts great white and golden sand, flat water, and soothing breezes which makes it perfect for anyone wishing to rejuvenate. Showers, toilets, changing rooms, vaults, shaded and quiet spaces, music, and anything else you need to make your vacation a little more beautiful are all available at the kite centre on the spot, so what else do you need. The rugged terrain makes Matas Blancas one of the most tranquil and relaxed kitesurf spots in Fuerteventura, but it can get crowded with kitesurfers and windsurfers wanting to make the most of the flat water.

Matas Blancas Kitesurfing wind conditions
From May until September offers the most consistent wind conditions in Fuerteventura but the island has a lovely climate throughout the year so you can kite here any time. The average daily temperature in the winter is 20 degrees Celsius, while in the summer it is around 28 degrees Celsius. The water temperature usually ranges between 18 to 23 degrees Celsius. The wind here is thermally generated so as the land heats up the air rises, pulling in colder air from the ocean. The wind picks up speed in the morning and reaches its peak about noon. The stronger the wind the more gusty it becomes. Wind speed usually starts from 15 knots and can get really strong, so this is definitely a good spot to have a small kite in the bag.
