La Garita

La Garita is a beach break located on the eastern coast of Fuerteventura, Spain, facing the Atlantic Ocean. The spot features a straight, rocky-sandy coastline with agricultural lands inland transitioning to developed infrastructure northward. The water body shows moderate wave energy typical of Atlantic exposure, with an average swell of 1.60m. Wind conditions are marginal with only 28.4% reliability and 10.2 knots average, requiring patience for sessions. Side-shore conditions favor northerly winds (0°), which align occasionally with Atlantic systems. The area presents intermediate difficulty due to rocky features along the shore and variable conditions. Water temperatures around 20.6°C require minimal protection during summer months. This spot suits intermediate kiters comfortable with rocky terrain and variable wind. Key considerations include timing sessions during more reliable wind patterns, watching for shallow areas near rocks, and being aware of the developed port area to the north which may influence local wind patterns and water conditions.
