Weather in Tarifa right now is freezing!....but by March things should really warm up a little. Can be a little unpredictable though!

Well in Denmark the water is 1 degree celcius and the air is about 5 degrees.
So i geuss it is a bit warmer then that?
How warm is the water? How is the wind now and in march? wich kite sizes do you normally use?
See you soon
Peace

Hi, I live 20 km far from Tarifa. You can have all information you need from internet. Look here for example:

http://www.windtarifa.com/index1.html

When wind is from W you normally use 12 meters or bigger
And when wind came from E (Levante) 12 meters or less

The water isn´t very cold, you won´t be cold with normal neopren suit.

This is another very good web for chek the meteorology at Tarifa spot:

Good luck! and see you at the beach!

Ah! And if you also want night parties, come in summer, you´ll be surprise, sure

i've been to tarifa 2 times at this time of year, the wind can be very strong in tarifa. make sure you have a small kite 7m, 8m or 9m
