Yes this trip was pretty manic but after seeing the awesome pics that JC captured and the great sessions I had in the water that day, I’d say it was more than worth it. Sailing with Ben and the other locals really does push you to go for it a lot more and every time I come here I find myself going for double loops just to keep up with the other guys, just what you want to be honest!
It does help a lot to know where to stay when you come to Tarifa, one of my best friends Pete King and his wife and two daughters live in an idyllic setting on the mountain overlooking the whole of Tarifa. Their incredible pad is my home from home in Tarifa, they also have an amazing self-catering rental accommodation in the grounds of their ‘ranch’ which is perfect for any travelling windsurfers, particularly when Pete and Susi speak English, German and Spanish and know everything you would ever need to know about Tarifa!
This trip provided me with my all-important high wind fix before I start an intensive two months of work to pay the mortgage and fund my next trip away that will hopefully be longer than just 24 hours!”
