Every kite destination on Earth
812 places across 1505 spots in 104 countries — wind season, water, level and schools, every value sourced and dated.
That 812 is every place the atlas holds. 432 of them have a destination page of their own; the other 380 are held as a single spot and open on a spot page. They lie in 104 countries, 81 of which have a country guide written so far.

San Vicente de la BarqueraSpainWindy daysnot modelled hereAprilTypical wind8–9 knthermal sea breezebeginner-friendlyintermediateadvanced2 spots0 schoolsIn season March to November
A genuine small Cantabrian fishing town of under 4,000 people, built around a medieval bridge and castle, pairing a tide-dependent natural-park spot (Oyambre) with a straightforward town beach (Meron).

Northern Albania's Adriatic coast around Shëngjin and Velipojë is an emerging, still rough-edged beach-resort strip rather than an established kite destination — Shëngjin is a small port-and-resort town backed by protected wetlands, Velipojë a long sandy beach at the Buna river mouth bordering Montenegro.

Elafonisos is a small, low-key Peloponnese island reached by a short car-ferry from Pounta, and Simos is its postcard beach — but that beach only really works for kiting in winter and shoulder-season SW/W fronts, so summer riders cross back to the mainland side at Pounta/Pavlopetri instead.

Tampa's two kite parks are functional suburban launches rather than a scene of their own — most of the region's real kite culture (shops, lessons, the 'vibrant' community) is actually on the St. Petersburg side at Skyway Beach, a roughly 30-minute drive away.

Caye Caulker and Ambergris Caye (San Pedro) are Belize's two easy-access barrier-reef islands, reached only by boat or small plane — there are no cars, no bridge to the mainland.
Torre Quetta & Santo SpiritoItalyWindy daysnot modelled hereMayTypical wind12–18 knnamed regional windbeginner-friendlyintermediateadvancedgear rental2 spots1 schoolIn season May to September
These are Bari's own kite beaches, not a resort trip - Torre Quetta sits right on the city's seafront and Santo Spirito is a satellite neighborhood 11 km north, so the natural move is to stay in Bari itself and commute to the water.

Boracay is a full-blown tropical resort island that happens to have one of the most reliable kite lagoons in Asia on its back side - so you get five-star infrastructure, English everywhere, and a 24/7 party a five-minute tricycle ride away, at the cost of crowding, tourist pricing, and a beach scene run largely by package operators.

Réunion's west coast around Saint-Gilles is the island's main resort strip — dry, sunny and lagoon-fringed, with real restaurants and nightlife unlike most tier-2 kite destinations, wrapped in an unmistakably French-Indian-Ocean culture of volcano hikes, curry and rum.

Phuket is Thailand's biggest, most developed resort island - a full spectrum from Patong's neon nightlife to Nai Yang's quiet national-park calm and Rawai's local, boat-jetty feel - so the kite trip experience depends entirely on which corner you base in.

Pak Nam Pran and Khao Kalok are Hua Hin's quieter neighbor, 30 minutes south down the same coast: a 7km stretch of flat-water beach with a handful of small schools (Yoda, GoKite Asia) and a beach-village feel instead of Hua Hin's malls and traffic.

Almería is a real Andalusian provincial capital first and a kite destination second: the kiting happens on the city's own urban beachfront, so you get tapas culture, a Moorish fortress and a working port instead of a resort strip.

Porto-Vecchio is southern Corsica's biggest town and the natural hub for three beach spots (Palombaggia, Pinarellu, Balistra) - it works well for riders who want a central base with real restaurants and services, staying just outside town near the beaches rather than in the center itself.

Divjakë is a workaday farming/fishing town on Albania's central coast whose real draw is the wild Karavasta lagoon and pine forest behind it, not the town itself - there is almost no nightlife, and the kite beach is inside a national park where police have been known to pull kiters out of the water over an obscure 'kitesurfers count as vessels' rule.
