From
mid October to mid April La Ventana offers great amenities for a California
windsurfing vacation - warm water, good wind, and a
variety of sailing sites well suited to anyone from beginning waterstarters to windsurfing experts. Sailing conditions are uncrowded. From
mid-October to mid-April, the north wind is more consistent than other
Baja locations due to the Venturi effect created by Cerralvo Island to
our east, and the thermal suction effect of the rising hot air from the
desert peninsula to our south.

| The
wind usually blows all day with calm mornings and evenings for other
activities or relaxing. Around late morning the winds begin, light at
first, and typically building to 15-25 mph in the afternoon. Then there
are the epic days of the big Nortes; these days are peppered throughout
the season and provide great high wind sailing and swell for those who
are up to it...there are even a few spots for the wave sailors on those
big days. Our location is in the best area in La Ventana with a great
beach to launch and negligible shore break most of the time. |
