Windsurfing el medano tenerife: WINDSURF – Red Rock Surf & Kite Academy, El Medano, Tenerife, Canary Islands
El Medano (Tenerife, Spain)
El Médano, Tenerife, Canary islands (Spain), is a world wide famous spot for windsurfing. We were there in April 2016, and, with this review we want to give some tips to those going there for windsurfing (but not only).
At Tenerife, you can do windsurfing almost exclusively at El Medano, which has two bays suitable for this purpose: that one to the west of the village (Playa Sur), and El Cabezo, to the East.
The two bays are divided by a rocky and flat cape. The spots work fundamentally with winds from the northeast, that is, with the Trade Winds, more frequent and likely when sunny and stable conditions prevail on the Canary Islands. But sometimes, they can also blow with partially covered skies. If there are low pressures around the islands, these conditions disturb the flow of air which generates the Trade Winds, and winds can blow from the other quadrants. In this case, the spot can also work with winds from the South-East and South-West (on-shore), or from the west (side), generally less strong than the Trade Winds (we enjoyed a West wind at about 20 knots). The westerly wind is partially disturbed in the Medano Bay (Playa Sur) by Montana Roja, and generally does not enter at Cabezo Playa (too sheltered by the village buildings). With West Wind, at Playa Sur you have flat water conditions. With winds from the South, you can have a bit of shore-break and Waves, of variable height, depending on the intensity of the wind and swell, possibly coming from offshore. If the wind comes from the North, both the bays are sheltered, and there is calm.
With South West, you can also surf at the beach of La Tejita (west of Montana Roja), where, however, there are no rental facilities. Finally, we point out that we’ve seen wind at 25-30 knots from the north/north-west direction at Las Americas (West coast), where, usually, people go only for wave surfing.
There was no one out doing windsurfing, on that occasion. There are no windsurfing rental centers here (some only for wave surfing). Conditions there did not appear prohibitive, even if the shore in several places, is full of rocky plateaus and breakwaters, so that you can not do mistakes. But it is better to ask information to the expert riders at El Medano (also with regard to possible strong currents), before going out here, and have problems. That day, in El Medano, no wind at all …
But to El Medano, you go to catch the Trade Winds. July and August are the most reliable months for these winds, although, they tell us that occasionaly even in these months there are days with no wind, or light wind. During the rest of the year, you can have a few days, one, or two consecutive weeks, with beautiful Trade Winds, and others with scarce or absent wind. So, except for July and August, it would be better to move on predicitions, although, in case of absence of wind the island allows you to do some very nice trips (read this article).
For those who want to evaluate alternatives to Tenerife, they tell us that Fuerteventura is a bit more windy. In particular, Sotavento, not being sheltered at North, also works with the winds coming from the north direction, which, as mentioned, in El Medano, can not enter. However, it should be clear that if the Aliseo is disturbed by weather conditions around the archipelago of the Canary Islands, you won’t take much of the wind also at Fuerteventura.
The websites most consulted by local riders to verify wind predictions for El Medano are:
– muchoviento.net
– surfmedano.com
– windguru.cz
As regards windmeters, you have a very good one at El Cabezo, the data of which are available here.
Here, you have a real time webcam which shows El Cabezo bay.
At Playa Sur at El Medano, you, generally, enter into water to begin your session in the South West part of the bay, at the end of the seafront, where there are all the windsurfing rental centers, and where there is the Hotel Playa Sur.
This bay provides quieter conditions than El Cabezo, both because the coast is mostly sandy, and because you have less wave here. With Trade Winds, waves that you can surf side rise near the dam facing the village. In the bay, instead, choppy conditions prevail. Note that the part of the bay in front of the village would be reserved for bathing, while further west, toward the Montana Roja (and downwind with Trade Winds), to Kitesurfing. But, in fact, anarchy reigns: swimmers and kiters invade the central portion of the bay that would be reserved for windsurfing. Conditions with more significant waves, and shore-break, appear if Trade Winds blow strong for several days, or as a result of swell coming from offshore, because of far away storms (we are in ocean). With winds up to 20 knots, however, the bay appeared suitable for everyone, and we met lots of beginners practicing.
We have to underline the fact that all (local riders), and persons engaged in the rental centers, advised us not to go out from the bay, both with North East (passing the promontory of Montana Roja), and with West wind (passing the cape in fronto of El Medano), because winds and currents (the say that they may be very strong, even at 6-7 knots), push hopelessly offshore, and there is no good swimmer that can counteract them.
So, it is better to adhere to this advice.
El Cabezo, instead, is the spot reserved for more experienced riders, at least with strong Trade Winds and rough seas. If, however, the wind does not exceed 20-25 knots and the sea is not very big, even the intermediate surfers can try the spot (bump and jump conditions, with some nice waves that you can begin to surf). The value of this spot is that you can surf side. You can enter into water from two sandy beaches: the first one next to the hotel Arenas del Mar (further east), where there is a beach bar (chiringuito), or the beach just close to the area for campers (autocaravan). Surfing front side, you end up in front of the rocky point facing the village. Here is a rocky plateau, and especially the submerged rock named Godzilla, which, in case of wipe out, are ready to eat your equipment….
In the google map, at end of article, you will find the various places listed above.
In the South part of Tenerife, the temperature is fairly constant throughout the year (around 20-25 Celsius degrees, regulated by the Ocean), with low moisture.
However, there is some seasonal excursion, with warmer in summer and less in winter. When we were there in April, the air temperature ranged between a high of 28 degrees (sunny days with little wind), and a minimum in the evening, or at dawn, of 18-20 degrees. The water temperature was 20 °C (we went out with long wetsuit 3/2 mm, and barefoot).
As for the rental business, there is plenty of choice. We have visited the Surf Center Medano Playa Sur managed by the Gahmig family. We met Arne, one of the instructors, who is very kind and friendly. The center has excellent Naish equipment of the current year (see movie).
We also visited the Tenerife Windsurf Solutions, which has windsurfing equipment of the main brands of the current year
Our piece of advice, frankly, is to book your equipment rental only in July and August, if you do not go there with your equipment. In April, when we went there, there are no big crowds, so you can reserve day by day, depending on conditions.
Finally, with regard to the shops selling windsurfing equipment, we have not seen particularly large businesses. The most significant shop appeared Cabezo Surf shop in Calle La Graciosa. Others predominantly sell Surf Wear.
Arne Gahmig, of Surf Center Medano (but also Howtowindsurf101.com webmaster), has published a very detailed guide on its website. El Medano is his homespot, and, for that, Arne is able to really provide many useful tips.
Arne provides guidance about dangerous or restricted areas in the bay of the spots, about the typical winds that blow, the waves conditions, schools and windsurfing rentals, as well as on stores selling equipment.
Finally, he also gives many helpful tips on El Medano village, with proposals for accommodation, bars, restaurants, and alternative to windsurfing.

El Medano and Los Abrigos, Tenerife
Notes about the trip to Tenerife and La Gomera in October 2013, all series about this trip are here.
Not far from the south airport of Tenerife, on the coast, there are two resort towns of El Medano and Los Abrigos. El Medano is a mecca for wind and kite surfers. A new, not at all historical resort town on the south coast.
The right wind for these sports is blowing here and it blows regularly. My wife Sasha really likes windsurfing, and although she does not do it regularly, she learned to ride on all her recent holidays (in Rhodes, Kos, Thailand, then in Egypt). She does not like to ride in the Gulf of Finland – the water is very dirty. nine0003 That’s why during our holiday in Tenerife we regularly went to El Medano so that Sasha could practice “beach start” and “water start”.
The wind was weak for the first week, it was possible to slowly “tram” under sail back and forth:
only by the end of the second week it “blew”. And then the whole coast was filled with kiters.
While our mother was skating, Polina and I hid from the wind.
The wind here carries a huge amount of sand. Instantly the whole head, all the clothes, everything is filled with sand. Probably, this is not the right place for non-core tourists to relax. nine0004
In the evening, the promenade is filled with quite a “civilian” (not surfer) type of people. Restaurants are full, souvenirs are sold. But the souvenirs are predominantly surfer-oriented:
Some special spirit is present here, but I must say that the surfer audience did not seem very friendly to me, it is such a closed world, more for its own:
Windsurfing is a complex science to look decent, you have to come here for the whole summer and really study. It seems to me that learning how to sail under a sail is more difficult than just on a board. The first steps, perhaps, are easier, but then things get more complicated, and some things simply cannot be understood without a good coach. So we plan to come back here for a month to learn. Nice place:
East of El Medano is Montana Roja (Red Mountain).
I never managed to run to it – windsurfing training in this area was more important.
Another semi-desert beach behind the mountain. In windy weather, it is also chosen by wind and kite surfers.
Further west, closer to Las Americas, is the resort town of Los Abrigos. It lies a little on the outskirts, there are fewer tourists here. Pleasant and calm place. There is a lot of unfinished real estate around the edges of the town. It seems that people rushed to build / invest money. But then everything fell into place. nine0003 The town center with its small port and promenade is absolutely charming.
In each of the restaurants on this short promenade, we were offered to go to dinner. They don’t seem to be spoiled by customers. We chose one, as it was called now and I don’t remember. They took a huge plate with different fish. It was very tasty and cheaper than in Las Americas. Los Abrigos left the most pleasant and delicious memories.
Unusually for an island in the Atlantic, 1,000 miles from the southern tip of Spain, it has Michelin-starred restaurants and an array of other dining spots with specialised cuisines and, often, spectacular views.
Like a number of the restaurants in the resort, it also serves a mean bowl of Canarian potatoes, which maximise on intense, nutty taste, accompanied by red and green chilli sauces.
Each room is tastefully decorated, in a bright, but restful modern style.
Lessons for both can be prearranged on request.
It is located in the town of Guia de Isora in Tenerife and offers a beautiful view of the neighboring island of Gomera. The hotel is immersed in the greenery of banana plantations, orange groves and emerald golf courses. The complex of buildings and villas, protruding from it like a reddish rock mass, as if merging with the local nature, is ideal for the most demanding tourists.

Most of the vacationers are residents of Germany, France and Holland, but there are fewer Russian tourists here than, say, in Kemer or Alanya – and therefore almost all sellers, waiters and hotel employees do not speak Russian at all, as is the case in others country resort. 
If you’d rather pedal than walk, rent a tandem beach cruiser at nearby Pacific Ave Cycles and cruise together all the way to East Cliff.

Or maybe you know the city from different reality shows or advertisements?
Apartment with one bedroom, one bathroom, living room, kitchen, terrace overlooking the garden. Ground floor. Communal swimming pool, new supermarket Hiperdino within walking distance. Living area 47m2, terrace 10m2. 
A good way to do so is by renting a bike in Corralejo and taking it on the boat with you, however, you can also cover the whole island on foot in about two hours. The route is circular and very simple since it is mainly flat. It runs between volcanic sand and lava fields adorned by gorse bushes that define the landscape.
It has 6 square kilometers and a maximum height of 120 meters.
The Spaniards called them lobo marino (sea wolf) for their wolfish appetite for fish: each seal needs 30-40 kg of fish per day. The fishermen destroyed the seals in the competition for fish, a sad story. nine0003 
The most advantageous lagoon looks at high tide. Five people live in the fishing village, the rest come daily from the mainland. Both ferries and water taxis go to Lobos. Twice a day 3-4 catamarans come with tourists for swimming and snorkeling. nine0003

1 Las Escaleras – Las Carboneras
We use the stopover to visit San Cristóbal de La Laguna. Tenerife’s second largest city is located 550 meters above sea level on a high plateau. To get there, we take the tram line 1. The train stops in Santa Cruz at the Fundación station, about 600 meters from the cruise terminal. After a half-hour ride, we leave the train in the center of La Laguna. In colloquial language, the inhabitants of Tenerife save the “San Cristobal”; we join them.
From there we walk about 300 meters to our first destination, the Casa de los Capitanes Generales and its neighboring buildings.
Nowadays the Real Sociedad Económica de Amigos del País de Tenerife has its seat there. The organization has pursued charitable goals for more than 200 years. She owns one of the most important private documentary and photographic archives around the Canary Islands.
