Windsurfing Courses in El Médano, Tenerife

Context El Médano, located on Tenerife, is one of Europe’s premier destinations for windsurfing, thanks to its consistent northeast trade winds, which blow with strong and steady force for approximately 290 to 300 days per year. This beach, with its fine golden sand and temperate waters, regularly hosts the PWA World Cup, creating a unique atmosphere of competitive professionalism rarely found in Spain.

The Experience During the intensive course or individual lessons, you’ll begin with theory on the sand to grasp core principles and safety practices. You’ll then practice handling the sail on land, followed by exercises in shallow water to master balance on the board. Finally, you’ll progress to more advanced maneuvers in real-world trade wind conditions, feeling the constant pull of the wind and the rhythmic sound of waves beneath you.

For Whom This activity is ideal for adults with beginner to intermediate ability seeking to learn or refine windsurfing techniques. Participants must have good balance and tolerance for sun exposure and wind. It is not suitable for individuals with significant physical limitations or those without prior experience in open water.

Local Context El Médano is a coastal community with a strong tradition in water sports, blending a family-friendly environment with professional training schools.
