Costa Calma (Sotavento) is a quiet coastal town/resort located about 80 kms south of the airport in Fuerteventura. The South is quieter than the north with less tourism thanks to restricted development. The pristine white sandy beaches and dunes on the Jandia peninsular rival some of the worlds finest.
All guests stay in our budget apartments or more spacious bungalows in the resort of Costa Calma. Our Windsurf Rental Holidays in this area offer great value for money and are ideal for couples or friends who want to rent equipment, sail at one of Europes famous spots, enjoy the beach and the laid back Canarian pace of life.
Sotavento located on the outskirts of Costa Calma is considered as one of Europes best and most consistent windsurfing spots and in summer it hosts the annual Professional Windsurfing World Cup. The warm climate, consistent wind and variety of conditions make it a great all year round windsurf destination. The trade winds blow from as early as March through to Sept, summer is the prime season however thanks in part to the spot being located in a wind acceleration zone there is usually sufficient wind to get out on the water most weeks, even in winter.
Please note that this rental package is for windsurfers who consider themselves to be self sufficient and totally independant windsurfers.
*** Details of our popular windsurf rental package is below, however with four ranges of equipment and flexible rental periods the choice can be bewildering. Therefore please contact us with your requirements and we will tailor a package to suit your exact needs ***
