Salgar

Salgar is a small coastal beach break located on Colombia's Caribbean coast, featuring a sandy beach backed by dense vegetation and scattered residential development. The spot faces northwest toward the Caribbean Sea with gentle to moderate wave conditions. The coastline orientation at approximately 315° (northwest-facing) makes northeast winds ideal for side-shore conditions, though the area experiences low wind reliability at 14.7% with average winds only 7.6 knots. Water temperatures average 28°C, and average wave heights of 1.18m suggest this is primarily a beginner-friendly location. Visible rocky formations along portions of the shore require local knowledge for safe navigation. The spot's limited size and developed surroundings make it suitable for learning kiters seeking protected conditions rather than experienced riders. Access appears constrained by infrastructure, and wind consistency would be the primary limitation for regular sessions. Best suited for light-wind freestyle and beginner progression.
