Spain

- Despite having fewer windy days than the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands offer a wide range of windsurfing options, particularly in Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera.  
- Light to moderate thermal winds characterise spring and summer, whilst in winter low-pressure systems bring strong winds and bring wave spots to life.  
- Ibiza has comparatively little wind and hardly any equipment for hire, whilst Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera have vibrant scenes and several surf centres.

Mallorca, Menorca, Formentera and Ibiza: windsurfing in the Balearic Islands – more than just Mallorca?

- This guide presents eight windsurfing wave spots around the world that offer relatively beginner-friendly conditions despite the surf.
- What they have in common are shallow, often sandy entry points, moderately breaking waves, plenty of space on the leeward side and, in most cases, a lack of rocks in the main area.
- The spots cover different wind directions, climate zones and levels of infrastructure, thus allowing for progressive learning from flat water to reef waves.

Wave spots: Gentle giants – the best spots for beginners

- Gran Canaria bietet neben dem ruppigen Pozo ruhigere Spots wie Bahia de Formas und Bahia Feliz für Anfänger, Freerider und Speedsurfer.
- Vargas ist ein variabler Wavespot mit teils besseren Wellen als Pozo, bietet je nach Swell auch Bump-&-Jump-Bedingungen und getrennte Bereiche für Nutzer.
- Rund 300 Tage im Jahr herrschen perfekte Windsurf-Bedingungen, mit Sommerfokus auf Pozo und Winterfokus auf Playa del Ingles und Bahia Feliz.

- Trip to Gran Canaria characterised by the failure of the north-east trade wind and storm Therese with hurricane, strong winds and unusual south-westerly winds.
- Several challenging windsurfing sessions at spots such as Pozo, Salinas and Castillo, including equipment damage, injuries and professional level on the water.
- Despite storm damage, closures and beach rubbish: seven out of ten days of wind, positive results and praise for the organisation by Pozowinds.
