Sanlúcar de Barrameda is situated at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River in southern Spain, where it meets the Atlantic Ocean. This location creates a sheltered bay environment with protected waters, making it suitable for beginners. The spot consists of shallow sandy areas and mudflats characteristic of the estuary system. Prevailing winds from the east would provide ideal side-shore conditions for kitesurfing. However, the location suffers from very low wind reliability at only 5.2%, meaning consistent riding days are infrequent. Average wave heights of 0.74m are minimal, limiting skill development. The bay experiences strong tidal influences typical of river mouths, affecting water conditions throughout the day. Boat traffic is visible and presents an ongoing hazard. This spot is best suited for absolute beginners seeking protected, flat-water conditions during favorable wind windows, though wind scarcity makes it an unreliable destination for regular practice or progression.
