Spain — Atlantic, Mediterranean and the islands

TAILWINDSPAIN SL

Wind speed, direction and gusts for every spot on the Spanish coast, hour by hour — so you know before you load the van.

  • Spot-level forecasts
  • Wind alerts
  • Interactive maps

What the app actually tells you

Wind you can plan a session on

Average speed, gust spread and direction for every hour, read in one glance. The number you rig for and the number that will knock you over, side by side.

Spot by spot, not city by city

Forecasts are tied to the launch itself, because the wind at the beach bar is not the wind two headlands along. Coastal and inland spots across Spain.

Alerts for your window

Set the threshold and the directions that work at your spot. The push arrives when the forecast crosses them — not every time it is breezy somewhere.

Interactive wind maps

Scrub the timeline and watch the pressure gradient move. Useful when you are deciding between two coasts rather than two beaches.

Favourites on one screen

Your spots in the order you ride them, so the morning check is one swipe rather than five searches.

From the people who use it

★★★★★
I stopped driving an hour and a half to find it offshore. The direction read for my spot is the part that changed things.
Marta
★★★★★
I teach six days a week and the alert rules mean I know the afternoon before whether to book beginners or not.
Iker
★★★★☆
Clean screen, no clutter. I look at gusts and direction and close it again. That is all I want at seven in the morning.
Rubén
★★★★★
Flying inland, the map timeline is what I use most — I can see the gradient arriving rather than guessing from a single number.

Before you ask

Which spots are covered?

Coastal spots the length of mainland Spain plus the islands, and the inland launches that riders and pilots actually use. If yours is missing, send it to us through the form — adding spots is a normal part of the work.

Where do the forecasts come from?

High-resolution atmospheric models, interpreted for coastal terrain rather than shown raw. Headlands, thermal effects and sea breeze timing change what a grid point means at the water's edge, and that is the part we work on.

Is it only for kitesurfers?

No. Windsurfers, sailors and paragliders use the same wind data with different thresholds — you set the speeds and directions that matter at your spot, and the alerts follow those.

How accurate is a wind forecast, honestly?

A forecast is a probability, not a promise. We show gust spread alongside average speed so you can see when a day is confident and when it is a coin toss, and we would rather tell you that than round it off.

Can a school or event get its own setup?

Yes — shared spot sets, team alerts and venue briefings are what the centre and event work is. Describe the venue and the dates in the form and we will scope it.

Tell us your spot

Rider, school, club or event — send us the detail and we will come back with what we can forecast for you.

  • Someone from the forecasting side reads it, not an autoresponder.
  • We reply by email with what is realistic for your spot — including when it isn't.
  • First step is a short conversation about how you use wind, before anything is quoted.
