When is the Best Time to Come to La Ventana?

The Wind blows from Oct-April, the strongest months of wind being December, January and February. Home and business owners begin to arrive in September and most of the seasonal business open in October and you will see just a few kites and windsurfers on the water in October. Thanksgiving break is a great time to come since the wind is here, the water still warm, and people get time off school and work for the holidays.


For kite lessons, late Oct. and early Nov. are great times to come since there is lots of space 
on the beach and on the water (and in lesson bookings). 


If you want to stay for a long period of time and get through your learning curve over a few weeks or a month, November is when you want to come because lodging prices sometimes increase for December and January, so you are more likely to get a deal! November is also extra special because there are less kiters and windsurfers on the water than there are in the high season.

If you have been kiting for a while and have traveled a bit to other kitespots on the West Coast already, then December, January and February would be extra fun because there are lots of familiar faces in La Ventana you will see, fun networking, events and demos, and new friendships to be made. In December and early January La Ventana gets "Norte´s" which are cold fronts that create strong side shore winds for La Ventana, and often we get some swell right in front of Playa Central!

In the high season you can run into pros on the beach, take their kiteboarding clinics,
 network with kite companies, go to kite demos, and more! 

March is also very windy, there are less people in La Ventana and on the water and the weather warms up. Lots of people who come early season return in March for the same conditions. Spring break also allows people to get time off of work and school, so if you want to Bring your kids this is a great time. In April and May the wind is lighter and consistent, most people on the water are home and business owners who are enjoying the peaceful and lightwind days of La Ventana, and some of the lodging prices drop.

Spring break is a good time to come with your family!

So, we can chart out the months like this:

October: Good for learning, cheaper lodging, bring 10 m, 12 m, 14m kites.
November: Great for learning, water is still warm, bring you 9m, 11m, and 13m kites.
December: Great wind and good for learning, lots of parties and Nortes; bring you 7m, 9m, and 11m kites.
January: Great wind and good for learning, lots of events and social parties, bring your 6m, 8m, and 10m kites.
February: Great wind and great for leaning, bring your 6m, 8m, and 10m kites.
March: Great wind, great for learning; bring your 7m, 9m, and 11m kites.
April: Good wind, good for learning, bring you 8m, 10m and 12m kites.
May: Good wind, good for learning, cheaper lodging, bring your 10m, 12m, and 14m kites.

If you want to learn to kiteboard, do it as soon as you can, but if you will have to plan your vacation ahead of time then go ahead and book your lessons for November or late Feb and March, since there will be less traffic on the water, less waiting for your food in restaurants, and possibly better lodging prices for you. To book your kiteboarding lessons please email [email protected] for the best instruction in La Ventana. Looking forward to your visit!
