| Hi, does anyone know if there is any kiting in the Puerto Vallarta or Sayulita area? I have an opportunity to go there and was wondering if it was kitable. From what I can see, it isn't known for its wind but does anyone know anything? Thanks! |

| Hi, there is some kiting in Bucarias which is about 20 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta. I'm told the season is usually late Feb through April for wind. I think it is "so so". I've been spending a lot of time surfing in Sayulita and have gone over there a few times to see what it's like and those days were dead. But it is a bit sailing area and La Cruz, nearby, is where they are building a huge marina and there are lots of sailing races there so there is wind sometimes. |

| I instructed a student 2 years ago who manages vacation rentals in Sayulita. He said the wind is very light at best. The surf is great tho. |

| Kiting in Bucerias is very good from March -end of may. Seabreeze starts about noon and blows to dark nearly every day during these times . Usually 15-20 knts. High in low 80's and very cheap low season lodging make this a great kite spot. Surfing is the game in town up north in Salulitis . |

| Anyone know about late fall (Mid-End Nov)? I know the wind isn't that great down in Baja then, so I imagine it to be the same in Bucarias? |

Certain years Baja is actually blowing by second half of November, usually by December it's on. Don't know about these other places though. _________________ The Slider Project, LLC
