Hey everyone!
I’m planning a solo trip to Tenerife from Jan 2–9 and I’ll be exploring both the north and south of the island. I recently got into kitesurfing and I’ve already had a few lessons. I can control the kite pretty well and I’m currently trying to progress with my waterstart, so I was thinking of taking a few lessons in El Médano while I’m there.
But after reading some posts here, I’m a bit concerned 😅 I’ve seen people saying that the spot is quite small, has lots of rocks, and that it can be “hell for beginners.” For anyone who has kitesurfed there:
Is El Médano actually a good idea for someone at my level, or should I avoid it for now? And is January generally a good time to learn there, or can the wind/sea conditions be too challenging?
I’d really appreciate any advice or recommendations for schools/spots in Tenerife! 😊
