Caballos

Caballos is an open ocean kitesurfing spot located on Puerto Rico's northern coast, facing directly westward into the Atlantic. The spot features a dramatic rocky coastline with steep cliffs, visible in the satellite imagery as the dark jagged terrain on the right edge. The water shows consistent wave formation and a turquoise gradient indicating shallow-to-moderate depths nearshore transitioning to deeper ocean. The spot experiences relatively low wind reliability (2.1%) with modest average winds of 5.8 knots and small average waves of 1.19m, suggesting seasonal variability. North winds (0°) provide the ideal side-shore condition for safe kitesurfing operations. The rocky, cliff-lined shore limits available landing and launching zones, making this spot better suited for beginner to intermediate riders who can manage tight spaces and have solid water skills. The open ocean exposure means careful attention to rip currents and offshore wind conditions. Best sessions likely occur during winter months when Atlantic swells and trade winds are more consistent. This location demands respect for environmental conditions and awareness of the challenging terrain.
