REBEL.TV about kitesurfing vs windsurfing in Tarifa
When there is enough people practicing about any activity then there may be some negative side effects on top of all the good things. REBEL.TV is discussing the situation in Tarifa.
I tend to disagree that kiteboarders are not a family like windsurfers. At least where ever I have traveled most of the kiteboarders have been great. Maybe there are some exceptions when beaches get almost too crowded and people are not even trying to see the big picture how all the people in water sports love to be out there.
If there are any specific rules at any spot or just if there are other beach users, play by the rules and you will have a blast and not ruin your day on the water due to some disagreement.
