COURSE ORGANISATION AND SAFETY

A safety tower at Risco del Paso Playa Sotavento is always occupied by a lifeguard watching over the windsufers during opening hours, and able to act immediately in case of any emergency. The safety team is ready at all times to attend to rescues with the jetski or the zodiac. Nevertheless, we would like to underline that the spot at Risco del Paso Playa Sotavento has offshore wind and therefore every windsurfer should act with due diligence to prevent dangerous situations. Offshore wind is risky and demands that you should assess your sailing abilities honestly before going out in such conditions.

              A word about

              ION CLUB Risco del Paso

              The beautiful natural beach of Risco del Paso in the south of Fuerteventura is located 7 kilometers south of Costa Calma. In 2013, ION CLUB opened a windsurfing and kitesurfing school there.

              There are very few places in the world that offer so many different riding conditions in one place, as does the island of Fuerteventura and the ION CLUB Fuerteventura center. Customers can use the regular and free shuttle service between the ION CLUB centers of Risco del Paso and Costa Calma. Here, at the center of Risco Del Paso, the advantage is that we have wind all year round, and shallow waters that allow you to have a large standing area, which makes this spot a unique place.

              BEST PERIODS

              March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November

              WIND

              The hills just behind the beach of Risco del Paso accentuate the strength of the wind and also affect its direction. The wind blows in a northeast direction, from the left towards the open sea. It is quite strong and very reliable in Fuerteventura, especially in the summer. Although not as strong in spring and autumn, the wind is still present. The conditions for kitesurfing, windsurfing and wingfoiling are optimal, making it a very popular surfing destination. Fuerteventura became known decades ago for windsurfing. The island has always been an undisputed windsurfing spot. Surfing in Fuerteventura is also a local institution.

               

              WAVES

              The waves on the left side of the spot of Risco del Paso can sometimes reach up to two meters in height. They roll towards the beach because of the large sandbar that divides the lagoon, the open sea and the bay. The wave conditions are fantastic, especially for beginners in both windsurfing and surfing. There are no rocks or stones that could endanger you during your session, only sand.

              HOW TO GET TO sotavento beach RISCO DEL PASO?

              From Fuerteventura Airport

              It is quite easy to travel to and stay in Fuerteventura all year around. Several direct flights are offered by airlines from many European airports. Do not hesitate to rent a car as the rates are often attractive and it will be very useful to move from spot to spot, or to see more of the beautiful island.

              Allow about 1 hour and 15 minutes from Fuerteventura airport to the ION CLUB Risco del Paso center, which is located a little past Costa Calma. From the airport, take the FV-2 road towards Morro Jable and Jandia. The ION CLUB center in Costa Calma is located on the beach of the same name, right in front of the Monica Beach Hotel.
