Tarifa is a dream destination for any kitesurfer: reliable winds, wide beaches and a laid-back vibe. But how do you handle your equipment? Local rentals are often expensive and unreliable, while bringing your own isn't always ideal either. GoShaka offers a smart middle ground: quality gear delivered to your home in advance as well as a free board bag for your trip. We explain below.
Both lugging your own gear and renting on location in Tarifa have distinct disadvantages:
High rents
up to €100 a day is no exception.
Limited choice
in high season, there is often no suitable size or kite available.
Obsolete gear
many rental companies have been running the same equipment for years.
At GoShaka you rent kitesurf gear starting at one month. The big advantages:
You will receive everything at home before departure
No waiting or uncertainty on site. You check your own gear in advance and travel with peace of mind.
Competitive prices for longer periods
For the price of a few days' local rental, you have a complete set for an entire month through GoShaka.
Quality, well-maintained gear
We only rent premium equipment that we would sail ourselves.
Occasion Gear Offer, from 1 month's rent.
Assemble brand new set, from 3 months rent.
To make your trip even smoother, we offer our own boardbag service. Here's what you get:
First 2 weeks free
As a subscriber, you get a handy board bag absolutely free for the first 2 weeks of travel.
Perfect size for travel
Our board bags are suitable for a complete kitesurfing kit including kitesurf board, kite, bar, wetsuit and other kitesurfing accessories.
Once your gear is settled, it's time for the real thing. Tarifa has something for everyone; these are our three favorite spots:
This is the main spot in Tarifa. It is spacious, clear and perfect in Poniente winds. In summer there are separate areas for schools and independent kiters. It can get very crowded here in the main season.
Sheltered by hard Levante and a good mix of flat water and small waves. Ideal for freestyle and freeride. Great for after-hours drinks and chilling out between kite sessions.v
Slightly quieter than the other spots. Great views, beautiful dunes and room to practice.
