5 Tips to Plan your Kitesurf VACATION in Tulum.

November to May.

November to May is the official kitesurfing season in Tulum. This doesn't mean you can't have some days with zero wind on this period. But, it is, for sure, the best time to ride.

In case of non-windy conditions in Tulum you can chase the wind going on a kitesurfing trip to Isla Blanca (North Cancun) or El Cuyo (Yucatan). These amazing kite spots are just two and a half hours drive from Tulum.

Despite summer is not the official season, you can have wind and kite. Every year is different, but there is a good chance to have enough wind to start your kitesurfing lessons in case you are a beginner.

Light to medium spot.

Wind power in Tulum is light to medium (from 12 to 20 knots average). Normally, we ride with a range of 10 to 13 meters kite. Sometimes we use smaller kites, but it is not the rule.

So, if you have kitesurfing experience and want to bring your own gear (at least your kite) choosing a kite in between these sizes should work fine.

If you are a beginner you should find a kite school with professional certified instructors to teach you. If you are an advanced kitesurfer you should go to a kite school, check in, learn as much as possible about the spot, and specially launch and land the kite with proper assistance.

All schools in Tulum who work with certified instructors are perfect to help both beginners and advanced kitesurfers.

Why you should choose us?

Because you may want to learn with the number 1 kite school on Trip Advisor, with constant excellent reviews and happy clients;
Because you may want to learn with carefully selected certified instructors; and
Because you may want to learn at Ahau Tulum, one of the top kite spots in the area with all facilities at your disposal (restaurant, bathrooms, beach beds, wifi, parking etc)

The Perfect Accommodation.

Find a hotel that suits your needs and budget. Best scenario would be booking a hotel with a kiteboarding school on its beach or close to one.

Apart from Ahau Tulum where our kite spot is based, Alaya Tulum, Delek Tulum, Kanan Tulum and Casa Ganesh Tulum are amazing beach front hotels next or very close to us.

Across the street from Ahau, you can find the beautiful Yoga Shala place with nice jungle view rooms, delicious restaurant and better prices than the beach front ones.

If you need something very cool, but a little more affordable, you should check out Anastasia Tulum studios. Awesome location, awesome design and all the amenities for a perfect week in Tulum town. Make sure to rent a car to get to the beach and move around every day. Taking a taxi won't be a cheap solution.

Thanks Giving, Christmas, New Year and Easter Holidays are very busy dates in Tulum. So, you should book your accommodation at least a couple of month in advance.
