Where to Kitesurf in March

New month, new ideas on where to kitesurf! Here we go with the best kitespots for March. The winter is almost over, so it is normally time (or at least my time) to head back to Europe and then Egypt for the beginning of my kite safari season. So where am I right now? I’m kiting in my favorite kitespot for March, and that is:

Island of Sal, Cape Verde

The season is ending in Cape Verde, but the wind is still on and pretty much guaranteed in March. Summer time is not good for kitesurfers in Sal, but Winter is honestly awesome, and I do spend here January, February and March. Every year. Period. So yeah, you can find me in Sal also in March, and Sal is on the top of my list.

North of Brazil

Not that far from Cape Verde there is Brazil. Next year i’m planning a March downwinder, and I will then be able to write a bit more about this country. I’ve been in Brazil years ago, but those times I was a twin tip lover and I spent most of the time in the lagoons of Cumbuco. Wind was blowing, and again, it is pretty much guaranteed, both in the lagoons and in the ocean. So 2022 will be my Brazil year, and maybe Brazil will reach number 1 spot on this list.

3. Kite Safari, Egypt

Egypt is getting windier and windier every year, and what used to be bad kitesurfing season (March and November) are now becoming unexpected gems. And this is true especially for Kite Safaris, because we do not kite at land but we visit kite spots that are much more exposed to the wind. This means that even if statistically low wind is expected in Egypt, we will find wind at sea — and there you will have good kite sessions in March in Egypt. The water is getting warmer, the wind as we said is good consistent, and the vibe on board is always great. I can’t complain anymore about March in Egypt (also considering that we will find most kite spots empty at sea).
