Windsurf in Mallorca

Windsurf rental and courses in Can Pastilla. Over two decades at one of the most reliable wind spots in the Mediterranean.

Windsurfing and the Bay of Palma have gone hand in hand for decades. Mallorca has deep windsurfing tradition, and Can Pastilla is one of its most established spots: flat water, steady Embat sea breeze in the afternoons and Mediterranean temperatures for sailing almost all year round.

At El Niño Surf Center our windsurf gear is mostly beginner-level: high-volume, stable and easy-to-handle boards, ideal for getting started or getting back into the sport. We do not carry advanced or high-performance equipment.

Frequently asked questions about windsurf in Mallorca

Is Can Pastilla a good spot to learn windsurfing?
It is one of the best in the Mediterranean. Flat water, steady thermal afternoon wind (Embat sea breeze) and direct, unobstructed launch into the sea. Perfect for beginners.
Can I rent without knowing how to windsurf?
No. Rental is reserved for people with some autonomy. If you don’t have the level, start with our courses.
When is the best season?
From May to October the Embat sea breeze blows almost every afternoon. There is wind in winter too, though more variable.
What do I need to bring?
Swimsuit, towel and sunscreen. The wetsuit is included in the course. If you have your own harness, bring it.
Minimum age for the courses?
From 8-9 years old with enough weight (25 kg+) and swimming ability. We match the gear to the student.
Do you do groups for companies or stag/hen parties?
Yes — we organise windsurf activities for groups with gear transport to the beach or bay of your choice. Check our Groups page.
