Wind on the beach

offshore

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.
