La Pared

La Pared is a bay-style kitesurfing spot located on Venezuela's northern coast, characterized by a northeast-facing shoreline with protected waters. The bay provides moderate wave exposure with average swells of 0.62m and generally choppy water conditions. The spot features a sandy beach with rocky points extending into the bay, creating both natural hazards and potential wind acceleration zones. Wind reliability of 22.1% indicates inconsistent conditions, making session planning important. Average wind speeds of 9.2 knots suggest light-to-moderate wind days with northwestern winds providing ideal side-shore conditions. The shallow bay environment and rocky features make this spot suitable for intermediate kiters with experience in confined waters and coastal hazard navigation. Best conditions occur when northwest winds exceed 12 knots and align perpendicular to the bay mouth. Kiters should avoid rocky areas during low water and be aware of tidal currents that can develop in the bay. Local knowledge of specific rock hazards and seasonal conditions is recommended before first visit.
