We chose to settle our kitesurf camp in Fuerteventura, because we think it is the best island for kitesurfing in the Canary. The name Fuerteventura, literally means ‘strong winds’, who doesn’t want to go kite surfing in Fuerteventura (strong winds)? We will explain in later chapters why Fuerteventura is the best canary island for kitesurfing and home to our kitesurf camp.

But if we want to be precise, there are three kite surf season in the Canary Islands: high season (April, May, June, July, August), mid-season (September, October and March) and low season (November, December, January, February).
During the high season for kitesurfing in Fuerteventura, you can be sure to have enough wind for 5 kite surf lessons in a one-week stay. You can expect winds over 20 knots everyday. Therefore, the period between April and August, is the best season for kitesurfing in the Canary Islands. The trade winds are guaranteed every day. This is why we love wind season in Fuerteventura. And we chose this island in particular because it it the windiest in the Canary archipelago
The medium and low season for kitesurfing in Fuerteventura,Canary Islands range from September to January. During this season you can expect bigger wave but less guaranteed winds. But still, you could easily fit at least 3 kite sessions in a week. All in all, you can practice kitesurfing in the Canary Islands all year around.
