Windsurfing Fuerteventura
17.06.09 Sad news for Flag Beach Windsurf
Centre: The local council in Corralejo have bulldozed the hut on Flag
Beach. It's a long and complicated story however Ben and Rachel are working hard
to provide and restore their beach service. However until further notice they
will be operating as follows: They will be situated in the same place at flag
beach each day, that is half way between the large RIU hotels and the start of
Corralejo where the old hut was . They are visible on the beach next to the
catamarans with flags flying near the water and wind breaks etc.
Do not forget they have a shop in the centre of Corralejo and they will have a
board collection location at their store in Corralejo, Calle Poril (previously
Calle Muñoz Grande) number 8 that is a garage door. They will be there at 09:30
each day. All those clients on rentals that want to take equipment away can do
so from the storage or it can be collected from the beach. Flag Beach cannot
offer board storage facilities UNLESS clients have already booked, in which case
they will still honour those bookings. They are still offering rescue service
with a boat. Obviously they apologize for any inconvenience and will of course
keep us updated with any changes.
For
clients who prefer windsurfing in a little more shelter, Ventura Surf, located on
the town beach in Corralejo, will be providing a mixture of kit from
Tabou/AHD/Gaastra. We have a wide range of
apartments and villas in and around Corralejo,
including some superb beach front properties. Again
it is advisable to book very early for high season dates.
In the south of the island (Sotavento / Costa Calma, Playa de Jandia) we are also offering packages to
the Sol Gorriones Hotel, home of the famous Rene Egli Windsurf Centre who have a
huge selection of kit from F2, JP and Neil Pryde. Call or email today for a
quotation from your nearest airport.
Back on
sale are two wonderful beachfront properties
Casa Miranda and
Casa Hedley. Both
are front line and probably the closest villas with pools in Corralajo to Flag Beach
windsurf centre.
