The aim of this post is to start the biggest free downloadable spot guide for Kitesurfing or windsurfing around the globe.

Send me you placemarks for GEarth spots. Please make sure that you put in info (ie best wind direction best tide best season if you know) in the notes section under properties.
THEN email to richdirector@gmail.com with Gearth placemark: country in the subject line. I will email all people once database is set up.

If they have any you missed you can easily get them off the editor - she's really nice. Or if you have time you can add more on.

Cheers.

Your post was amazing. Windsurfing is being one of the popular water sports. Your post is very helpful with context to the rising popularity of windsurfing. I do have information on windsurfing and the locations in which it is getting popular.

Hi Richard, could you send me the spots you have from South Africa and Portugal?

Kitemap is a good resource, I use this often to find kite spots.

Windsurf in Puerto Madryn, Patagonia Argentina

Great spot for windsurfing in patagonia argentina, winds from 10 to 50 knots.

Windsurfing equipment storage is located just some meters from water.
