Resolution Downwind Dash, Langebaan, South Africa - The Worlds Biggest Kite & Windsurf Race.

The Cape, South Africa.

The Western Cape is the primo kite surfing destination of South Africa. Big Bay & Bloubergstrand offer big waves and cross onshore wind on a near daily basis, perfect for free ride & wave sessions. For flat water &  freestyle enthusiasts, one hours drive will take you to Langebaan, a crystal clear 25km long lagoon and the only natural sea lagoon in South Africa. The lifestyle on the Western Cape is super chilled, friendly and extremely beautiful. Hot summer sun, fantastic wind, wild parties, braai's, crazy summer nights, sundowners over looking table mountain, the Cape has it all. For anyone planning on a kite surf holiday here, I strongly suggest planning it for Mid January to late February, the wind is strongest and pumps consistently. It tends to get gusty as the day draws on but also increases in strength, the water is cold (Atlantic Ocean) and wet suits are a must. However this is overlooked when you are on the water, with awesome conditions and with Table Mountain as the back drop to your down winder, parking off for sundowners after your session with beaming smiles, it is easy to appreciate why The Cape, South Africa is one of the top destinations in the world.
