Rescue boat safety and assistance !

In Tarifa, the wind often blows from a side offshore direction known as the Levante creating strong wind conditions and a relatively flat water surface, ideal for kitesurfing.

To ensure safety during these powerful wind days, the city of Tarifa has arranged a dedicated boat rescue service. Four rescue boats operate daily during Levante conditions, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., covering the kite school area at Los Lances Beach. This allows kitesurfers to enjoy the session with peace of mind.

Please note: this rescue service is provided by a private company and is independent of the kitesurf schools in Tarifa.

Safety at the Tarifa Kitesurf Spot

On Levante wind days in Tarifa, a private rescue boat service operates in the Los Lances training area. Four rescue boats provide assistance from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm, helping you enjoy kitesurfing in Tarifa with maximum safety.

This service is operated by an independent private company and is not managed by the kitesurf schools in Tarifa.

How does it work?

Kitesurfing in Tarifa can be thrilling, but offshore Levante winds can sometimes make it challenging to return to the beach safely. That’s why Addict Kite School Tarifa offers a simple and reliable rescue boat system through an external company, Sea Rescue, to ensure your safety on the water.

How Rescue Tickets Work:
When you arrive, you can purchase a rescue ticket, granting you a number of emergency boat interventions during your stay:

🔷 1 rescue = €25
🔷 2 rescues = €40
🔷 5 rescues = €60

If you encounter difficulties, such as strong wind, damaged equipment, or trouble returning to shore, a rescue boat will come to assist you and bring you safely back to the beach at no extra cost.

You can kitesurf without a rescue ticket, but any emergency boat intervention could cost up to €150.

💡 Pro Tip: Even experienced kitesurfers should consider at least one rescue ticket, especially during Levante wind sessions. It guarantees a safe, stress-free kitesurfing experience in Tarifa.

How Does It Work?

The rescue boat service works with a ticket system:

🔷 1 rescue = 25€
🔷 2 rescues = 40€
🔷 5 rescues = 60€

If needed, a rescue boat will bring you safely back to the beach with no additional fees. Without a ticket, a rescue intervention can cost up to 150€.

💡 We recommend having at least one rescue ticket, especially on Levante wind days, to enjoy kitesurfing in Tarifa safely.
