Famara is located in the North-Western side of Lanzarote (due north of Costa Teguise) and the sailing area is located at the base of the spectacular Famara cliffs.
The area is predominantly frequented by kitesurfers & surfers and the small nearby fishing village of Caleta de Famara has several kite & surf shops offering rental equipment and lessons.
The best wind directing is NE to N providing a side on-shore direction with a low-medium tide.
This is the exposed side of the island and hence all of the surf schools at Famara; so the kiting discipline is predominantly wave sailing.
The best months for constant wind are May to September however sailing is generally pretty good all year around.
