The unusual microclimate of the Strait of Gibraltar has made all sorts of water-based games and activities available in this city. The mix of warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea and cool waters of the Atlantic Ocean created a unique aerodynamic effect.
The winds on the shores of Tarifa blow strongly, almost without ceasing. The terrain is so varied that practically all possible water sports can be practiced here: wind and kite surfing, wakeboarding, wakesurfing, water skiing and even parasailing.
