Kitesurfing Holiday El Yaque
El Yaque is the perfect spot for beginners and advanced kitesurfers. The mornings are excellent for practising, perfect conditions for beginner and intermediate kitesurfers, because there is mostly light wind between 2- 3 Bft. The wind will pick up in the afternoon from 4 to 7 Bft.
The kitesurfing conditions are very straightforward. There is usually no shore break, the beach and underwater is sandy and it is shallow (chest deep) for 3-400 metres from the beach, marked by a small platform. There is a distinct line as the bottom shelves away and the water is a much deeper blue. The chop starts building up and even further out you can get some reasonable sized swell coming down the channel between Margarita and Coche.
From the beach you can see Coche in the distance. If you like blasting on really flat water, it is worth joining a day trip there. The wind blows across the salt flats and beach, giving a perfect speed track. It can also be popular with sailing yachts that drop their anchors close to the beach and sit just offshore. You should be able to check before you go if it's likely to be busy.
The conditions in Margarita make it suitable for all abilities, from beginner to expert. |

Itinerary & Highlights
SKYRIDERS, EL YAQUE
For those wishing to have an introduction to kitesurfing or train with the best the safest and most processional center is Skyriders, a division of the world renown Club Mistral company.
The center has an ideal location on the main beach of El Yaque with a good size private grassed area for kiting up. This is essential in El Yaque as the beach is quite shallow and busy so it is important to have a fended off area. The launch from the main beach is note ideal as it has a big wind shadow and can be very busy with both kiters and local sunbather who seem oblivious the dangers ! Therefore Skyriders will take students to Kite Beach, a 10 minute boat ride up wind, where there is more space, no wind shadow and an area of shallow flat water to practice.
