best place to live and kite in southern portugal

Hello all
I appologise in advance. I don't speak any Portuguese yet.
I am a kiter from Vancouver BC Canada and I have just taken a job in southern Portugal (Castro verde) starting in Jan. Where is the best place on the southern coast to live and kite? I was looking at a place called Vila nova de Milfontes. It looks nice from a google maps perspective anyways.
In Vancouver I get by with a 7,12m combo that gets me kiting from 14 to 30+ knots. I use my 12m 90 percent of the time here (90 kg with a 139x40cm TT). What sort of kites do people use there? What are winds like in winter? In summer?
Thanks
Scott
