Wind on the beach
What the spot record warns about
- offshore wind requires upwind ability / self-rescue skillOffshore wind: riders need upwind ability, self-rescue skills, and school/rescue support if learning.
- remote desert location — avoid driving alone due to proximity to the Venezuela border
- unreliable electricity
- small cash economy, bring small bills
- Strong wind, often 25-35 kt, can be too much for large kites or early beginners.
