After the severe lack of wind in Cape Hatteras I was ready for some good kite surfing conditions and Paracas did not disappoint! In the month I was there I thing we had a bout 3 non kite-able days and average wind around 18 knots! With a plethora of spots to explore from flat water to open ocean there was plenty of kite surfing fun to be had!
This first post on Paracas contains an assortment of pictures from a few kite surfaries into the Paracas Reserva.
First stop on the reserve tour - The Cathedral
Whilst named the Cathedral for a now collapsed archway that connected the rocks of this picture to the main land, the sheer size of the features remain impressive.
Kite Spot - Kiting Las Salinas!
Kite spot - Laguna Grande
Deep in the reserve we reached Laguna Grande. An abundance of flat water an open ocean space to kite, set to a magnificent backdrop.
Smoking mountain overlooking Laguna Grande
Broken town
Rebuilding amoungst the remains of a town along the shores of Lagnua Grande, devastated by the tsunami or 2007.
Kite spot - Playon
A fabled wave spot however lacking in swell on this ocassion. At least we had wind!
Who needs a 4x4...
