Launch notes
Launch from the flat sandy/muddy beach areas during high tide for easier water entry. NNW and SW winds provide the most consistent conditions; check wind direction before heading out as the spot responds best to these established patterns.
Gear & clothing
Gear · Bring 15-17m kites for the average 10-knot winds, with a 12m kite for stronger days. A twin-tip or directional board works well for flat-water progression and freestyle practice.
Clothing · A 3/2mm wetsuit is suitable for most seasons; water temperatures are mild to cool year-round in this southern Argentine location. Summer months (Dec-Feb) allow for thinner suits or rash guards.
Crowd & etiquette
Respect other water users in this accessible estuary spot and maintain clear communication with fellow kiters. Keep adequate distance from swimmers and boats, especially near populated beach areas.
Additional notes
Plan visits during the best-wind months (Jan, Feb, Apr, Jun, Nov) to maximize conditions on this reliable spot with 286+ windy days annually. Early morning or late afternoon often brings steadier winds on the estuary.
