Beach and Tide Conditions
Recommended tide for kitesurfing is High Tide .
Cabanas de Tavira, Portugal is a Shallow, Flat and Chop spot.
The launching/landing area is reported to be of Small size.
There's not so much space in Lacem, but once you get in the water, it all changes. At the side of the Island you have all the space you could want. No concrete in either cases. Getting there is not easy.
When the tide is low, Lacem has almost no water, so you should prefer going to the Cabanas Island (you can cross the channel by foot). If the tide is up, Lacem it's a great place to try out new things. The only problem is some vegetation that comes with the rivers that can sometimes hurt your feet. If you want you can go to the ocean directly on the board. If you like waves, would prefer the ocean (but the waves are not so often).
