 Beach by bugalugs Tarifa is particularly attractive to windsurfers due to its offshore winds, and long white sandy beach. There is also handgliding, kite-surfing and diving. There are lots of places to hire equipment, have courses or just go it alone.
Equipment can be bought or hired locally. Leave a Comment Theme: SurfingAddress: Aky Oaky, Batalla del SaladoPhone: 956 68 356

 Two surfers as Atlantic Ocean waves roll in by Bwana_Brown, 2 more photos After spending most of our holiday in Spain either in the inland mountainous regions or blocked off from the Mediterranean coast by high-rise resorts, it was quite thrilling to see the wild activity taking place in Tarifa as the winter waves of the Atlantic Ocean rolled in one after the other. According to the surfing websites, the coast between Cadiz and Tarifa provides some of Spain's best surfing locations, with the best months for large waves being between October and May when the ocean is at its stormiest. Visitors don't have to go far for surfing because Los Lances beach is right in the city beside the land connection to Isla La Poloma, with the geography providing a natural amplification of the waves. We thought it was quite an exciting-looking spot but apparently it is simply just a good place to practise before tackling some of the other beaches which require higher skill levels. Wind and kite surfing are extremely popular in the Tarifa area as well.

 Kite surfing by Beach_dog Another popular sport all along this coast, with its frequent winds. Kite surfing is an interesting sport to just sit and watch, some of the experts can jump many meters into the air on a turn at the end of their run. Leave a Comment Theme: Surfing

 Punta Paloma Beach by Beach_dog Near Punta Paloma at the Hurricane Hotel you can book day excursions, pony trekking, along the coast. I´m not sure of the cost, but it seems a pleasant way to spend a few hours in fantastic scenery. Leave a Comment

by venteeocho Kitesurf: From the beginnings of kite surfing, many windsurfers switched to this new, exciting and spectacular sport. Tarifa's beaches are ideal for kitesurfing. The enormity of the beaches allows space enough for both the beginner and the expert kite surfer even in Summer. Tarifa's famous winds are perfectly suited for kitesurf. Kiteboarding in Tarifa is not dangerous if done with the necessary caution, and learned with cualified instructor. Tarifa counts with actually almost 20 Kitesurfing schools offering kite courses, and probably the double including the various "unofficial" schools. Windsurf: Windsurfing is the sport that has given this town its fame. The first surfers discovered Tarifa in the early 70's. Two consecutive days without any wind is pretty seld If there is no wind, check the other activities too! Tarifa has much more to offer than just windsurf. There are too many bored surfers hanging around the beaches in a bad mood on calm days..:-) There are a total of six Windsurf centres along the beach. The first coming from Tarifa is Pata Negra at the hotel Arte Vida. A little further forwards you will find The Eric Lubbe Neil Pryde Test centre in Hotel Dos Mares and the Club Mistral in Hotel Hurricane. In the bay of the Valdevaqueros (the dune) there is another Club Mistral and last but not least the Spin Out, Tarifa's first windsurf center at the Casas de Porros. .
Diving: Different certified scuba diving schools offer diving tours in the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean sea. Currents in Tarifa, can be pretty strong due to the Strait of Gibraltar. Do not forget your scuba diving license to hire equipment. Tennis: You can also practice these popular racquet sports here. There are tennis courts in some of Tarifa's Hotels, such as Hotel Dos Mares, Punta Sur, Dulce Nombre and in sports centres that appertain to the municipality of Tarifa. There is only one Padle tennis court in Hotel Dos Mares, which is quite busy during high season, although in Algeciras (a 20 minute drive away) in Club Financiero San Miguel, you can find more than 6 grass courts. Two of these have glass walls and all have artificial lighting. It is located in a residential area which makes tha Club practical and very stylish Leave a Comment Theme: Beach Activities
