if some were around but no one bother himself to at least try to stop him, then sorry but the locals deserve to have their spot closed

Re: Portugal - Lisbon

"eternally thankful"? I like that! :-) the shallow water locations I know, lagoons and stuff like that, are off limites to kitesurf on the summer months, so you will need to stick with the ocean Try "Praia da Nova Vaga, Costa da Caparica", or "Fonte da Telha, Costa da Caparica" in Lisbon south margi...

Re: Nova Vaga, Troia or Ilha de Tavira / Torre D\'Aires

Hi, It’s time to plan the trips  :D This year we chose Portugal. I went through the related posts and restricted the destination to three spots : Nova Vaga, Troia and Ilha de Tavira / Torre D\'Aires. We are looking for big sandy beach (=no hazards), no big waves ( or no waves at all). It would be ...
