We'll be staying right here and taking advantage of the Easterlies, Kite the mornings surf the afternoons, pretty much just like summer in reverse. Overseas is overrated ;-)

Danatgbay....went to sanur last June . In three wks saw kites from 10 to 17 up having fun . It was more consistent than I thought .
And bonus ....get up at first light and get a surf at Hyatt or Tanjung sari ....paddle out before the locals start the ferry run ! .

Greece is a great spot for kiting around early august. I went two years ago and it was 30 knots every single day.

Portugal has good kiting near Cacais - guincho. I kited there with an 8m in July a couple of years back. There is a good wave at Guincho also Though beware of the cold water. South coast of Spain is great - Tarifa. Big winds though June is a little early. last year was ok. There are wave spots nearby on the souTh coast - Canos de Meca.

For me this year, I am hitting Canary Islands - pozo Izquierdo and then 2 weeks in Morocco - Dakhla. Hoping to kite in the waves as well as the flat water at Dakhla.

Hi glasstraxx, I recommend posting that question to the FEKC - Fife and Edinburgh Kitesurfing club forums. They are incredibly helpful and accommodating. I hope you own a good steamer...
