Costa Brava, Spain

spot webcams:

Placed in the Maresme coast, Cabrera de Mar is a few km far from Barcelona. You can leave your car in front of the spot or stop in Cabrera train station (just in front of the beach). The main wind comes from south-east (thermic -specially spring and summer time), and comes from the right side Only some cloudy days we have wind from north-east with waves (left side), but it lasts only a few hours before it brings the rain (mostly in winter). You can see from far the Barcelona Sky Line while we teach and others kite.

In summer time you will find "chiringuitos" (open-air cafes), music, and kind people who will help you if you come alone.
