Acuatic Sports
The geographical location of this zone surrounded by rivers and lagoons makes it favorable to practice a great number of aquatic sports such as aquatic ski, wakeboard, surf, kitesurf and windsurf.
WAKEBOARD
Wakeboard is mainly practiced in the Chairel Lagoon as well as in the Tamesí River. The tules, or lagoon plants located here, work as wind curtains while the width of the canals prevent the winds from affecting the exercises and turns that characterize this sport. This city has an excellent wakeboard school which along its 7 years has won international prestige.
SURF
The coast of the southern tip of Tamaulipas and the north of Veracruz is perfect for practicing surf thanks to its soft beachbreak. Wall waves are the main type of waves that form here, especially during the morning. The best season to practice this sport is from November to March. The best places to surf are found at the Malecón in Miramar Beach, crossing the Pánuco River from the Malecón in the coast of Veracruz and in the beach of Altamira between the two breakwaters.
WINDSURF
The winds that regularly blow in our coasts, mainly the north winds, are favorable to practice windsurf. Prove of that was last year, when Miramar Beach hosted the National Windsurf Olympics.
KITESURF
Another aquatic sport that can be practiced is kitesurf thanks to the weather conditions with very constant winds, except for the rain season in which it is not recommended to practice. When reaching high speed, this sport can be something spectacular. It is not recommended for selftaught persons.
