Kitesurfing Locations

Any location with consistent, steady side-onshore winds (10 to 35+ knots, 5 to 18+ m/s), a large open body of water and a good launch area is suitable for kitesurfing. Kitesurfing takes place along ocean shores, usually off beaches, on large lakes, on bays and inlets and occasionally on rivers.

Some of the world's top kitesurfing locations are listed below in alphabetic order. Many of these destinations can provide kitesurfing training and equipment rentals.
