Dangers

Generally safe. Careful with other kitesurfers and respect the beach rules (entry-exit point, and no-kite zone).

It is your responsibility to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
