Today our athletes came together in solidarity to support the Moroccan community who are still suffering from the consequences of the recent earthquake. The entire kite-surf and wingfoil community stand behind Morocco in support and solidarity. Via the link in our bio you can find more information about how you can support Morocco during this time.

Prevailing winds
Cape Verde offers kitesurfing conditions for all levels with average winds of force four to five every day.
Water conditions
Find side-onshore wind and small wind waves on the windward, east side of the island. At Santa Maria on the south coast you'll find flatter water for freestyle. In the southwestern corner of the bay there is a wave spot for experienced riders with offshore wind. However, the real deal for experts is the pure world-class wave spot - Ponta Preta - which offers a very fast wave that can get huge with cross-offshore winds. It's special!
Competition history
The GKA Kite-Surf World Tour visited Cape Verde for the first time in 2018 where the season kicked off!
