About this experience

Golf del Sur, on Tenerife's sunny south coast, is a magnet for windsurfers seeking steady trade winds and calm waves. The protected bay offers ideal conditions for beginners and intermediates, while the consistent breezes challenge experienced riders. Local schools provide top-notch gear and guidance, making it easy to dive into the sport.

What sets windsurfing in Golf del Sur apart is the stunning backdrop. The black sand beach, framed by volcanic cliffs and the distant Mount Teide, creates an unforgettable setting. The water stays warm year-round, so no wetsuit is needed in summer, and the mild winter temperatures still allow comfortable sessions.

Friendly instructors know the local wind patterns intimately, ensuring safe and rewarding sessions. Many offer packages that include equipment, tuition, and even video analysis to improve technique. After a session, the promenade's cafes serve fresh seafood and cold drinks with ocean views.

This is not a tourist trap but a genuine local pastime. Locals gather here to ride the wind, sharing tips and stories. Whether a first-timer or a pro, Golf del Sur delivers an authentic windsurfing experience that captures Tenerife's raw beauty and welcoming spirit.
