Level

Showing all 3 destinations.

What modelled windy, riders' months and no series mean

modelled windy

The modelled series at one of the destination's spots puts January at half its days or more with three or more hours over 12 knots. That share is enough on its own: a spot here may or may not also name January among its best months.

riders' months

A spot names January among its best months while the model reads under half. Both figures are drawn and neither is adjusted.

no series

No spot at the destination carries a usable modelled series, so the months are the ones riders and schools name.

No wind series here

3 destinations

In season on riders' months alone: no spot at these destinations carries a usable modelled series.

How this list is ordered, and what puts a destination on it

Ordered by the modelled share of windy days in January where a spot carries a series (0 of 3 here); where a destination groups several spots, the share shown is the best of them, and the spot it was modelled at is printed under the figure on every card.

Colombia beyond January

The Colombia country guide covers visa, money, driving and the rules that apply everywhere in the country. Where to kitesurf in January lists the 245 destinations in season elsewhere this month.

Colombia has three or more destinations in season in January, February, March, April and December.
