Friday was Nice

The wind took a while to arrive, but Friday turned out to be a nice day. Hoping for several more days as good or better.

SUNSET KITING

Wind is Coming

It seems like the refrain lately has been "wait till next week." The wind has been light but should start to pick up today and the forecast is very good for next week.

Declining Forecast

What was looking like a very good stretch of wind this week has turned into unsettled weather with not much wind. Back when we used to have a bunch of us windsurfing at La Manga we could always count on it blowing for Thanksgiving and also we could count on it being cold. It seems that we can't count on anything anymore.

You Never Know

We've had some good days of wind and a couple of disappointing days. The forecasts have been usually close to what we end up getting but sometimes being a little off makes a big difference.  We've had wind that's been too northerly at times but often we get more wind than expected. We no longer have a wind meter on line that is close enough to where we kite. The closest is "Residencial Cortes."

Most days this past week have been good and that may continue through the weekend. The start of next week looks weak but should pick up again starting Thursday.

Water is starting to get chilly - mid 70's and dropping.

Wind!

Forecast includes lots of wind. Sometimes a bit gusty and a bit from the north but there has been some good wind and more coming. The water was full of kites Saturday but almost empty Sunday.

Sunday kiting with the birds.

Season is Looking Good!

We just had a couple of good days at the beach and looking forward to another one today and several more next week. Good 20 to 25 knot winds for most of the afternoon. Water is still warm but the beach is cooling off quickly.

North Winds

The kiteboarding season has started but the wind has been spotty and sometimes from the north. Still great to be out on the water!
