Heading to Loreto, Baja.... Kite?

Post by friendlyfire »

Hey, I could have sworn I posted this earlier today but it's vanished.
I'm off to Loreto tomorrow and am thinking about taking a kite and board. I understand it may not be an ideal spot but with a 14.5m Flite I can probably make go in pretty light wind. Any suggestions/advice?
thanks guys

If you have wind in Loretto it is usually from a Norte not usually a thermal. I used an 8 M there once and a 10M another time. If you see the wind and can't get to it as it's too far away up north then drive north along the malecon and then keep as close to the shore as possible while winding through and past all the gringo water front houses. You will eventually get to a spot a few km north of the city where there is a nice water access and beach.
